I've been into photography since I was 10. Shot the High School annual, was mentored by a professional photographer, took photos in college, etc, etc. After college, except for my interest in stereo photography, I largely dropped out of photography. I later married a wonderful lady who had also done a lot of photography work. Together, though, we didn't take more than vacation snapshots.
When digital cameras appeared on the scene, we were completely blown away by the capabilities and ease of the new digital cameras. Our computer expertise has helped a lot for processing images.
Now that we are retired, we are rediscovering our enjoyment of photography. We hope to make many more photos of our travels as we visit the USA in our new motorhome.
Because we both take photos these days, all photos here since 1999 are Copyright Robert and Sandra Swanson.
Our reading and music interests are described here. Seems that Flickr cannot accept a link in those books, authors, music, etc items below.

"Bob is one of my favorite photographers on Flickr. He is one of us fortunate people who live on Maui and appreciate the beauty around us.
His photography shows us many aspects of the beautiful life one can experience through his photos. He and his wife Sandi are very talented people and I'm proud to know them personally.
Through Bob and Sandi I have learned many things about digital cameras and their function in addition to many ideas on how to improve my own techniques. Thankyou Bob and Sandi for being my friends."13th March, 2007
