Only camera I have now comes with a phone…imagine that. I was a semi-professional photographer and a professional darkroom operator specializing in B&W film. Two darkrooms were in my charge, a professional photographer’s and a community college processing lab where I taught a non credit class in zone control.
Most of my paid photo jobs were in the wild world of ballet photography, others were usually for small business owners for their ads, which led to the small graphics business I ran in conjunction with my primary business.

I dabbled with 35mm film but worked mostly with larger format 4x5. Had a couple Hasselblad’s, Nikon, some Canon’s over the years. Got a SLR digital right before retirement…hated it. Only pictures I do now are iPad photos.
