About me

Gender Male
Occupation Retired/ self-employed photographer
Location Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States
Introduction I was born in Downey, California, but raised in Colorado Springs, Co. I've lived in the Springs most of my life except for a couple of journeys to Nuremberg, Germany for two years and three years in the U.S. Army, including one year in Vietnam. In college I majored in Fine Arts, but became an accountant instead. Over the years I've developed photographic skills out of a love of being creative and loving the great outdoors. My business is Michael Bluhm Photography and I specialize in color landscapes in both film and digital format. Please click the link to my business website, Michael Bluhm Photography, located at the top right of this blog, if you wish to view my portfolio or to order prints. The equipment I've used includes a Nikon FE2, Mamiya M645, Bronica ETRS, a Nikon D-200 DSLR and a Nikon D-5100 DSLR. Most of the images were taken in Colorado, but some are from California, Utah, Wyoming and Hawaii. My full-time job was accounting at a local resort until I retired in September 2013.
