| Intro: | Hi TLrs, I'm not new to photography but definitely a beginner in the digital format. My dad gave me my first SLR camera, a Pentax K1000, which I still have. Before that I was the proud owner of a Browning HawkEye "Box" Camera, which I also still own. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in MicroBiology and Analytical Chemistry. I am a Staff Scientist in an analytical laboratory where I specialize in Rheology. Just a note on how I photograph: I take my images entirely in manual mode. All of my images are manually focused. I consider this the best way to learn. I had my DSLRs fitted with Katz Eye split prism/microprism collar focusing screens for this purpose. I enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that the images I take are my creation and not the creation of the cameras electronics. I really enjoy the art of photography as well as using my own creative nature for the pleasure of sharing images with fellow photographers. I am by no means a professional nor an expert in any area of the art, but certainly take photography to be a life's passion for me. To that end, I welcome any and all critiques of my photos to help me along my learning journey and hope that it initiates many friendships with likeminded photogs. Many thanks to TL for the opportunity to share and enjoy! With Warmest Regards to all, Thomas | |
