One of my interests since I was a small boy is photography. In an earlier life, I had my own darkroom, lots of cameras and lots of lenses. I started out with a Nikon FTN (remember those?) and took classes in college. I did my own enlarging, both color and black and white, and went through lots of paper and chemicals. My first wife was not amused by the smell in the house but I loved it. I did mostly scenics, boating (I loved sailing!) and sports cars.
These were my MG years. I had learned to drive on a friend's Morgan and we went to many sports car races on the west coast, Laguna Seca, Vacaville, Stockton, etc. I took many photos during this time but unforunaty, due to time and moves, I lost most of them. I was a semi-professional and was able to see many photos.
Later on in life, digital cameras came into the market and I started shooting again. No more darkroom, no more chemicals, but a nice and sanitary environment on the computer. I currently use a Pentax SLR, Photoshop Elements, and various other photo enhancement programs. I still enjoy shooting scenics and documenting our trips around the U.S. and our cruises.
One of my goals here in Arizona is to set up a small booth and sell my photos locally. It's something to do and since we're retired, a small amout of cash is always welcome.
The following are some of my photos taken in various places we have been.
