Harris Graber's photostream  

January 14, 2011 I've started a blog, Life in Astoria and Beyond using my Flickr photos.

October 14, 2010: I've had to restrict comments to my contacts only. I've received some abusive comments lately and this seems to be the only solution. I've blocked the persons who left the comments, but there have been a few too many lately. I'm sorry to have to do this to the decent people out there, but it seems that stupidity is ascendant on Flickr these days.

Please do not add notes to my photos. I'll remove them if you do. I understand that sometimes you want to suggest a better crop, and I appreciate that, but I'll still remove the note. It interferes with viewing the photo.
Anyone adding rude comments or otherwise behaving poorly will be blocked for life. I don't put up with crap from jackasses.


It's me, the crazy old man with a camera. Yes, that's me. I'm currently unemployed and looking for work. That would include photography. Just so you know.

I'm a bona fide flickr addict and carry a camera at all times, now a Canon S90. I also carry a Panasonid Lumix LX-3with me, too. I like its 24 mm lens.

I have a Sony DSC-R1. I got it in January 2007. It's beautiful, but too large to carry all the time. Still, it has a truly great lens.

I've also added a Sony A-100 and a Sony A-700 + a Zeiss 16-80 mm lens.

I have a bunch of other cameras that I enjoy using as well, but they are larger and/or heavier.

I have lots of film cameras that I haven't used in some time, but I'm going to get back to shooting film since I just got a slide scanner.

If you see me, I will have at least one camera with me, my little Canon point and shoot that's always on my belt.

These days you will often see me lugging my Sony Alpha 700 with a Zeiss lens about, usually in my backpack, but just as frequently, around my neck.

My Twitter name is harrisgraber. Just so you know. Just let me know that you are following me from Flickr. I block without mercy if I don't know who you are.

Comments are always appreciated. Feel free to add me as a contact anytime.

29 March 2009:
I've just changed from Creative Commons to full copyright. If you use my photos on your blog, that's fine with me. You have my permission as long as a photo credit is given. A link back to the original photo would be nice, too.

If you want to publish my photos in something other than a blog, ask. I'm a pretty reasonable person and not a professional photographer who relies on his photos for income.

Just to make sure you understand: You may continue to use my photos on your blogs just so long as a photo credit and a link to the photo on Flickr are present.

What you may not do is to add my photos to your own Flickr account and photostream. I regard this as theft. I will report all instances to Flickr. If that fails, I will consider further action.
