A zen-dada-pundit playing with images; a flâneur in everywhen. Living with my husband and two cats in Dallas, Texas.
I was born in a time when singers stood still and kept their clothes on, sheets were always white, telephones were always black and all airplanes had propellers. No television, no computers, no internet, no FM radio, no CDs, no DVDs.
Currently 89 y.o.
Artist, photographer, filmmaker, writer
I play with images using various software although I don't know how to use it correctly. I'm more interested in making mistakes and celebrating the unexpected result.

I am fortunate to have a copy of amarcord108's excellent book of sensual black & white male portraits, Comfort of Dreams. Don is a person of many talents, not all related to photography. It is our good fortune that he switched from engineering to the visual arts, particularly to photography. He says in his profile that he is new to PhotoShop. You're a very quick learner Don. I hope you all enjoy amarcord108's images as much as I do.
