Photographs

Photography has been a big part of much of my life.  I got a darkroom kit after promising my parents that I would do it forever and then fairly promptly didn't do much of it for a number of years.  Instead, I used an Argus C3 camera to shoot slides and color photos. 

I got back into photography in a big way and set up a black and white and color darkroom where I did about every type of photography except Cibachrome.  It was a joy to shoot light onto a paper and then watch it appear in the developer or shoot the paper and put it into a color drum and then watch the results come out as a beautiful color page.  Then I got a computer.

For a number of years all my work was with text and there was nothing regarding photography.  Then, in about 2000 I got a Kodak digital camera.  I loved the technology; the fact that you could see your pictures immediately and also that the more pictures you took, the cheaper it became.  The first picture was about $500.00, the 10,000th, about $.05.

My photography is a work in progress and can and will certainly improve with time.  But it is a fun and most satisfying journey.

I've had a few pictures on this website, but I don't think it has much room for many.  Then I found out about Picasa Web Albums.

Picasa Web Albums provides a website that allows any user to upload photographs up to 1 gigabyte (nearly 4000 photos) for no charge.  If that is not enough, you can pay $25 per year for 7 gigabytes, $100 per year for 26 gigabytes up to $500 per year for 251 gigabytes.

Here is the link to my Picasa website. Please enjoy:
