BIOGRAPHY
I've been into photography as a serious hobby for over 40 years. I've shot film primarily in 35mm & 120. My first SLRs were Minolta SR-T's. Over the years, I owned and used just about every manual focus SLR that Minolta made. In the mid-90s, I decided to go autofocus and graduated up to Canon EOS. The EOS Elan IIe is my current film SLR. I bought my first digital camera, a 1 megapixel Olympus D450 a number of years back and have since upgraded to a Canon G3. Today, my primary digital camera is the Canon EOS 6D, but I also shoot with a 60D and my venerable 20D. My go-everywhere camera is a Nikon P7800.
A few years ago, I got into shooting with rangefinders. I have had two Voigtlander Bessa-Rs, a Yashica Electro 35 GS, and a Leica M6 TTL. Only the Electro remains. There's also a 1954 Rolleiflex MX-EVS in good working order in the case. It gets enough exercise to keep the shutter in time.
I'm gainfully employed as a critical care nurse and paramedic for a major regional medical center, but I do sell a few photos every now and again. I consider myself a serious amateur photog.
I live in northwestern NJ. I primarily enjoy shooting landscapes, architecture, and nature.
