Dr Dapper's photostream  

I am a retired former educator that has been dabbling in photography and working with the computer for many years. The cameras that I am presently using are the Konica-Minolta A2, the Canon G9 and the Canon 50D with several different lenses. I dabble in Photoshop CS2 & CS4, Lightroom 2, Corel Draw & Photo-paint, Painter 11 and a little in Bryce. I am strictly amateur class in these endeavors, but first class in my enjoyment of pursuing them. I started taking pictures when at the age of 14 I bought my first 35mm camera. That was back before range finders and light meters were included in the camera body and you had to use the depth of field scale on the camera lens to judge what was in focus. I took pictures on and off with still cameras into my thirties. Then let it slip away until about 1993 when I got interested in making pictures using the computer. That was before the digital camera. I was scanning old photos into the computer using a hand held scanner and trying to modify them with various programs. At that time I owned a video camera which I used with the computer to capture stills out of the moving frames. With the invention of the digital still camera my interest was rekindled. I bought my first digital still camera back at the end of 1999 and have upgraded cameras and added to the computer programming ever since.
