I grew up with a darkroom in the basement so when i was 8 i got the Kodak Darkroom Book #1 & did every technique that year. When i was 9 my Dad took me to a Man Ray Exhibit that was a life changing experience.

Now working with a Cambo 4x5 with a betterlight digital back . Produces huge files & you get to buy lens Now that fun compared to using a scanner.I now have been gifted with a Toyo 45CF camera that nice light carbon fiber press type camera. I still need people to hook me up with local galleries.

I've receive some rather snappy remarks stating i'm mentally ill. The fact is i'm disabled with a Spinal Issue bulging disc ( 2 ) & shrinking vertabra's ( 4 ) , spinal cord being scraped & cut as it whines its way thru my spine. I suffer from Phantom pains which are every bit as real as if you are being harpooned. My spinal issues are there for the duration & can't be fixed ( my films have been seen by 43 different doctors ).

    "You have shown me that there is art every where.
    And of course don't judge a photographer by what camera one haves.
    Sometimes being crippled in body can mak you a Hercurles in mind.

    Keep up the great work--Howie Silvers"
