Dan Tucker's popular Sailing photosI began with a Brownie camera <i>(anyone remember those?)</i> when I was about 7 years old. Moved on to an Instamatic, and eventually a manual Minolta SRT-100 SLR. Simple manual cameras taught me a lot about composition, exposure and lighting.
In college I worked in the Art Department where I had free access to the photo labs, and I began developing and printing in black and white, with guidance from a couple of the professors. This opened my eyes to the world of post-processing. It's a bit different now, with a computer, rather than trays of stinky chemicals!
Now I continue to shoot what I'm passionate about and inspired by. I hope that you enjoy my work, and will purchase prints or digital downloads of the photos you find beautiful, inspirational or memorable.
Thanks!
