Photography






With a camera in the hand, whatever you're doing takes on a more profound significance. I've loved photography for many years. Here's the page that attests to that.  

For a glimpse of my photographic background, check out the cameras below.

 

When I was 14, my dad gave me his Argus C3 viewfinder 35mm camera and showed me what photography was all about. I was soon developing my own black and white film.  Argus C3 camera

 

 

 

 

Argus C3, a bonafide classic camera.
I bought a used Voightlaender while in the army in Germany and continued with my hobby. Then in 1981 I bought an all-black, all-manual Nikon FM and a bunch of lenses and creative filters and embarked on a second surge of picture-taking.  Nikon FM top view with 50mm.jpg (21k) Nikon FM.

Rugged all-mechanical camera. Mine survived a drop onto asphalt in England, but not the savagery of my son's inquisitive fingers.

I bought an Olympus D320L digital camera in 1997, then upgraded to a D340L for another two years.
In November 2001 I bought a Nikon Coolpix 885 digital camera and was long in its thrall. I gave it to my daughter, but it's little used today.  Nikon Coolpix 885 Nikon Coolpix 885. 3.1 megapixel resolution.

Incredible pictures.

To make sure I always have a camera with me, I bought a Canon S110 Digital ELPH. I loved this camera -- and soon bought an SD230 with more resolution. Finally, when the SD400 came out, I went and bought this 5MP version of the original S110. Obviously, I'm sold on Canon products.  Canon S110 Digital ELPH Canon S110 Digital ELPH. 

2.1 megapixel resolution. Smallest digital camera made. The two subsequent ELPHs I've owned are very similar.
