Introduction My interest in photography actually started in 1957 when I bought a Kodak brownie. In 1958 my dad made me an enlarger and a darkroom. I was taking and processing film (B&W) . I started processing film for my classmates. In 1962 I went to work for Polaroid Corp in Cambridge Ma. In 1964 I joined the Navy and went to Japan and Vietnam. While In Japan I bought an Olympus Pen-F and Pen-FT. After Vietnam I returned to Polaroid. In 1974 I moved to Texas and my photography was inactive for a few years. In 1985 I moved to Atlanta where I bought another Olympus camera, an OM-1. In 1986 I took several classes in photography at the Southeastern Center for the Arts. At that time, I started processing all of my films, B&W, color negative and color positive. During the next 10 years I bought many more Olympus cameras. I did a lot of freelance and pro work. From 1998 until now I have been using many different Olympus digital cameras. I have recently gotten back into analog photography, Olympus cameras.
