About this site...

As you can see from the picture above, I've been involved in the art and science of photography for many years. The image was taken in 1972 while I was a student at Rochester Institute of Technology, studying Photographic Science and Instrumentation. The picture is a scan of a print that was an experiment in direct reversal processing. The photographic paper was a negative working paper, a transparency was used to expose the paper and the paper was run through a direct reversal chemical process that I and my lab mate had developed (no pun intended...). As you can see, it did reverse, but there is a noticeable lack of green in the image. Chemistry was never my strong point.....

This site is in a state of continuous change. It deals with photography, camera collecting , and collecting digital calculators . The photo section contains a library of images that I have taken during my travels around the world. The camera section describes cameras that I collect and the cameras that I use on a routine basis. The calculator section shows my collection of electronic calculators. As you can see from the image to the left, I've had a love of the calculator for 30 years. The popularity of eBay has made a market for these wonderful machines.
