Congratulations.





Thank you.

This month I've sold the 4th and 5th photos of my 50 year career


You have done better than me, which is not hard. ;-)

In the past, I discouraged inquiries about selling. However, this year
the owner of a local camera store, who is a member of one of my clubs,
gave me a some equipment, a focus adjustment, and a sensor cleaning, in
exchange for a print he liked. I had an inquiry from someone who saw
some of my prints at a library show: but since it was for a no kill
animal shelter, I gave her the print.

I have no idea when my photo career started, but I can safely say over
seventy years ago. I started with a using my mother's camera, when I was
about 8, a few years later I got my own brownie. In high-school I got my
first SLR, Exacta V with f2 Biotar, and a wet darkroom.
