I have been interested in photography since my early teens, my first camera was a Kodak Retinette 2b with a built in light meter something revolutionary in the early sixties! Our bathroom served as darkroom on many occasions. My primary interest was landscapes, but also railroad photography, reflected in my many historical railroad pictures that I put on Flickr to make them publicly accessible.

With moving to southwestern US five years ago from the East Coast of the US, my interest in landscape photography has been re-kindled, also aided by computer rather than wet darkroom processing that opened new possibilities, and not least increased time in retirement!

I hope you enjoy my albums on various topics.
