Hi! I've been a photographer since my dad got me a plastic 127 camera, a developing tank, chemicals and some contact printing paper... in the more than 40 years since I've owned Kowas, Konicas, Minoltas, Olympuses (Olympii?), Nikons, Canons, Sonys, and a couple of Apple Quicktake cameras (I'm sure I'm leaving out at least 4 or 5 others). I've shot yearbooks, weddings, bar mitzvahs, graduations, and gatherings of all kinds. Some things I've learned by instruction. Some things I've learned by making huge mistakes. Neither method replaces the other. These days I shoot strictly digital, having finally sold my Nikon 35mm system a few years ago, and trading my enlarger for a copy of Photoshop. My current tools are a Canon 20D DSLR (my fav for post processing manipulation), a new Sony H9 superzoom P&S, an older Sony F717 with an amazing Zeiss lens and the ability to hide the camera against your body, and a tiny Sony P10 for those times when you're not allowed to have a camera. In addition to photography I'm also a comedian and talk-radio host. You can listen to my co-hosts and I on our weekly 2hr show at www.schnauzerlogic.com. Thanks for stopping by. http://sonovista.smugmug.com/Photography/DPreview-Test-Images/eye-bw-052007a/154506348_eRZuY-Ti.jpg http://sonovista.smugmug.com/ 2009-12-17T14:25:50Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
