Who we are:

Nuts, bolts and Philosophy:
Photography is the composition of an image at a chosen vantage point followed by the selection and subtraction of real objects rendered with a chosen depth of field and exposure time. Our photographs are images burned on 200 ASA color print or 100ASA T-MAX B&W film in an Olympus XA rangefinder with a Zuilo 1:2.8 35mm lens or an OM-4 typically carrying one of the following lenses: 1:3.5-4.4, 35-70mm Zuiko Zoom , 1:2.8 35mm Zuiko, and a 1:2.0 28mm Vivitar. I’ve started experimenting with #8 and #15 Yellow filters on by B&W shots on our 2009 Ansel Adams Wilderness trip. An Epson Perfection V300 photo scanner and Picasa 3 software are utilized prior to posting on Flicker. I do not own photo-shop. These images depict the real and marvelous world around us. Computer generated images are another type of art form.
