About my work ...
I am the sole creator of each of my photographs. I use either a 1940s era large-format field view camera (with modern lenses) or a medium-format Hasselblad film camera, choosing color or sepia depending on what I'm trying to convey. In November I bought a Phillips 8 x 16" camera which I'll be using this winter; photographs from that will be added in early 2010.
Images are printed by me in my traditional wet darkroom – boring process but I like the control and results. Digital is great but right now I still feel more connection with the history of the old film cameras and darkroom.
