Seems like I've always had a camera but about 25 years ago I took a photography class in college. The Black and White darkroom was a magical place and since then I've really been hooked.

Currently I'm primarily using a Canon 5D, but also still use several Holgas, and a Pentax 645. I sometime put a Lensbaby on the digital camera and I'm beginning to like what it can do for some subjects. I have used an old wooden 5x7 portrait camera for a series of still life shots.

I have always shot B&W until I bought a Canon 10D, then later the 5D. Now of course I'm shooting color and deciding whether to put it into B&W or not.

Currently printing on the Epson 2200 and 4000 with ultrachrome inks using the ImagePrint6 RIP for both color and B&W on the 2200 and the Epson profiles for color and the Quadtone Rip for B&W on the 4000. Sometimes I think about my darkroom just sitting there but overall I'm pleased with the control I get with digital and Photoshop.

I'm blogging...a personal journal about cooking, photography, family, Mexico and anything else that interests me.
