I am an amateur film photographer in Davis, California. I enjoy shooting with my Olympus OM-1 (Zuiko lenses), my Yashica Mat 124G, my Minolta SRT (Rokkor lenses) and my newest camera - the Voigtlander Bessa II with the Color-Skopar lens. My favorite films at the moment are Ilford HP5 and Acros 100 II. I've also had some fun with Tmax 3200.

I am the administrator of a relatively new group on Flickr for black and white photos taken on film with vintage cameras and manual focus vintage lenses (vintage meaning anything manufactured earlier than the year 2000!).

When not taking pictures, I'm teaching sociology at Saint Mary's College of California.
