About gtveloce / Rob Russell  

I was born, picked up a camera, got on a bike and started exploring my urban environment. As a child I lived near an airport, so I took photos of planes. I rode a bike, then I raced a bike. So I took photos of bicycles. And flowers, birds, trees, roads, buses, trains, cars, people. Oh yes, cars. Alfa Romeos, but also Golfs, Swifts, whatever I had at the time.

I started with a Box Brownie, then Instamatic, Olympus Trip 35, a brace of Pentax SLRs, a Mamiya 645 and a Polaroid SX70. Did my own black and white and Ektachrome processing and printing. Also did drawing and painting, often abstracts. And then I bought a computer circa 1985 and everything went digital, if slowly at first. I now use a Nikon dSLR (D50) and an Epson 4490 scanner. Photoshop is way more powerful and cleaner than dipping my fingers in chemicals in a dark room...

I'm Male and Taken.
