Michael Kalus' photostream  

I don't do art, I see the world through my camera(s) though and sometimes I share.


I am fascinated with photography since I was five or so. My parents had an old Voigtlaender viewfinder camera and I remember shooting with it, I also grabbed the Polaroid 600 my mother had bought (the "box" type one) and remember dragging it around with me and to school to take photos.

I scan on an Epson V700 with Silverfast Ai Archival Suit, colour images are scanned at 48bit and B&W images scanned at 16-Bit since early October 2009, images are uploaded as PNG to preserve the colour depth, due to limitations of flickr files are downsized to ~10% for medium format scans and 25% for 35mm photos.


If you like any of the photos and would like to get a print, please contact me. All photos will be printed optical (the good old way) at a professional lab and are available in pretty much any size (up to 4 feet) and can be shipped either framed or unframed.
