A discussion of photos, cameras, and all things photographic, primarily using pre-1980's cameras and equipment. A place to organize and get an idea of my work over the last two years. This might possibly be the greatest photo blog ever done, or not!!! (Sarcasm) Please look anyway. Comments are very welcome. Check back frequently, because I update four to five times per week.
These were taken by my Zeiss Nettar 515 120 rollfilm camera. This is a very well built folding camera. The machining on this camera is light years ahead of the Viking but so was the price. The Nettar shoots a 6x6 negative while the Viking a 6x9. The glass on the Nettar is far superior.

My son asked me why I take so many pictures, why I was obsessed with cameras. I told him that I did it to capture moments of time that we would never have again. I didn't want to forget, or possibly be forgotten, so I was trying to capture the important parts of our lives. The outdoors is a fascination to me, as well as reading, writing, education and traditional archery. Oh Yeah! I forgot to say that I enjoy teaching at Enterprise. I actually like teenagers. Most are punks but, I still kind of like them. I am kind of sick that way. Go figure.
Thanks for looking and feel free to comment either on the photographs or cameras. These photos are copyright of the author. Please visit the links posted above to see some great photographs and work done with a variety of cameras.

I like the second photo. I am thinking of purchasing the Nettar. Looks like it produces quality photos.
