Accomplishments

My recent photo series, "Rosemary's Eviction" recorded 2,500 views in one day. NPR's blog, "Planet Money", had published a link to the series. The blog receives 12,000 hits per day. The City Pages has published some work, and so did the blog, "Twin City Sidewalks." I've also completed photographic projects for the Target Corporation and The Science Museum of Minnesota. 'Nuff about me.

My Tool

I use a Canon 50D (bought recenly) and a old Nikon film camera (F series). Most of the black and white pictures you'll see on my site were taken with this camera and 3200 speed ilford film. I like this film because of it's ability to render images in very low light. It also has a vintage look since it's grainy and has a "flat" look.
