Photography has always been a fascination with me. It began when I was overseas 57-59 Germany. My instructor was Professor Hanns. He taugh me the basic skills in photography, film developing and darkroom procedures. My first camera was a Voightlander Veto-B 35mm. Over the years following service, I went from amerture to pro freelance. and shot assigments for a stock photoagency and was published. I taught photography as an instructor in Adult Education...Basic...Intermidate and Advance. From photograhy I went into graphic arts and combined the two in with my work. And I feel prividledge to be here on Flicker among the best in this field.
