PhotographyI'm the guy who keeps this site running, and I'm honored to share this forum with these wonderful friends as both current and future contributors. I've been a photographer for most of my life, and I look forward to sharing much of the work I've done within these pages. And for photographers, I also look forward to sharing tips on how best to capture and display your own work, either film-based, digital, or a combination of both.
