In the early 1960's my Father purchased something that changed my life forever. . .A Polaroid camera. It was rather strange in appearance, but it was the latest and greatist in technology at the time. You could snap the shutter, and in seconds out came a picture that slowly developed in front of your eyes in just a few minutes! It was a like having a portable darkroom. Magic! That camera was a springboard into the next decade when I bought my first 35 mm SLR. As they say, the rest is history.

Late Afternoon Shower
If you are like me, you don't mind a rainy day once in a while. "Variety is the spice of life" I have always been told, so I really look forward to taking my camera out of the bag after a late afternoon shower hits. You will be surprised at what you are able to capture. In my locale,The swamp lands of Florida become vibrant with colors and the raindrops become the focal point of your images. I have posted a few examples. Stay dry.

A New Yesterday
I love to take new photographs of old things and make them look like they were shot 50 or more years ago. Today's processing makes it easier than it ever was in the past. Sepia filters, textured patterns, edges, scratches and discoloring can all be added simply by applying the filter. I utilize a plug-in for Photoshop called Wow. Also use Pic Monkey and Pixlr-O-Matic both apps available free online. I just like the artsy, nostalgic look they give your photographs. I have posted a few examples.
