Here are some random images, taken while walking around town.  Not exactly high art, but it'll give you a different perspective on how I see stuff.  Do you think I should continue with these pages?

I have to admit that I'm liking my digital camera.  When I first started making pictures, I used an old Nikon S-1 rangefinder camera, which I carried around in an old Army surplus gas mask bag (along with a light meter, extra film, filters, gray card, gadgets, etc.).  That camera went with me everywhere!  It got to the point where I felt naked if I was walking around without that old gas mask bag slung over my shoulder.  Nowadays, my basic film camera is a 6x7 Bronica GS1 camera.  That's a big honkin' camera!  It's great for studio work, but it is a big effort to carry it around much.  Thus, I stopped making casual pictures of the places to which I walked, and I stopped "documenting" my neighborhood.  But with the digital camera, I can carry it around.  Making pictures like this one helps me remember my roots.

And I've got to say that I'm loving the addition of a brownish tint to my digital pictures.  Sure, the original is in color, but the subject matter was basically gray-scale anyhow.

Okay, who besides me sees the face of a bad 1950s Science Fiction movie robot?

 

My ancient dog -- she's 14 years old now & is having trouble walking & getting up off the floor.  Those hard wood floors are murder!
