2014: I'm a Project Manager and Delivery Project Executive working for IBM in the Cloud.

I spent a lot of my teens taking photographs, when it was a treat to have 36 pictures. First it was the Kodak Instamatic 126; then Dad bought me a Nikkormat FTN. I must have been very well behaved that year.

 

Starting with my Flickr account, around 2005, I reviewed a box of treasured 70's prints and have put some up on Flickr. This has inspired me to look through my contact prints / negatives from then; I've found quite a few good images never before printed. And editing brings out many pictures previously thought over / under exposed / too small etc etc. Scanning the negative is easier than going in the darkroom!

 

Now I'm using Flickr as a repository of all my photographs since then, the 1970's. I acquired all my parents' photos too ... most are family only. And it seems never ending.
