I have been taking photographs since I was a child and got my first camera, a Kodak Tele-Instamatic 608. My next camera was a Voigtlander Vitessa-N, and then a series of SLRs including Rolleiflex, Pentax and Canon. Although I still shoot film, especially for black and white images, I primarily use my Canon digital SLR system with a combination of autofocus, as well as Zeiss and Leica manual focus lenses.
I enjoy exploring new places while traveling, as well as revisiting my home environment and trying to reframe familiar places and capture new perspectives. By using film cameras and manual focus lenses, I have rediscovered the importance of slowing down and considering each image the way we used to do it when taking images on film.
The focus of this exhibit is a series of photographs representing my interest in nature, landscape, and abstract photography, several of which I have converted to black and white, as I find this medium can enhance the tonality of the image. I hope you enjoy what you see and consider adding one to your collection.
