Why did I ever sell this camera?


NAVIGATING THIS SITE:

> When you click on any of the small images, a second window will open up with a
> larger image, and information about the photo. When you are through looking at
> the second window, if you close the window (click on the box at the upper
> left) this page will still be there. This saves having to reload this index
> page each time you come back from one of the larger images.

Watertown, Massachusetts 1973.
Suicide by Miranda. Not a very good camera, I survived the attempt! Istanbul,
1974.
In Turkish, this type of vessel is called a "feri bot". Watertown,
Massachusetts, 1974.
The thrill of my first 20mm lens! Newtonville, Massachusetts, 1979 Istanbul,
1975
The Bosphorus used to be lined with old wooden mansions like this. Istanbul,
1975
DeSotos are highly prized by Istanbul cabbies. Intambul, 1975
Typical Turkish bicycle. This one was unusual in that it had two good tires,
even if it lacked brakes and pedals. Kosovo, 1975
This type of woven fence is characteristic of ethnic Albanian design. Kotor,
Yugoslavia, 1974
This star-shaped bay surrounded by steep mountains was ringed with this sort of
mooring fences. Kotor, 1975.
Kotor is now in Montenegro, but was badly damaged by an earthquake since I was
there. Belgium, 1975
I took this with the camera and lens shown at the top of this page. Wellfleet,
Massachusetts, early '80's. Chevreuse, France, 1988.

Yvelines, France 1989
I built this bike. Bishop's palace, Wells, England 1988. Monet's garden, Giverny
1989.
A bit of photo-impressionism, using a home-made soft-focus lens, not computer
trickery
(Not that I have anything against computer trickery!) Paul is dead!?.
(I told you I didn't have anything against computer trickery!) Québec, 1993
A loooong skinny image of a looong skinny ship. Boston, 1995
Bath weir, England 1974 Paris, 1989.

I didn't have a tripod with me, so I propped my Retina IIc up on some coins.
"100 ans" celebrates the centenary of the Tower

Panorama, Paris, 1989
9 images from the Retina glued together. A 208k jpeg.




180 DEGREE PANORAMA OF NEW YORK'S CENTRAL PARK

September, 1998. This is a composite of 12 images made with a 100 mm Nikon lens
from a window on Central Park West.




BRANDON GAP, VERMONT, MID 1970S





> I like to play around with disposable cameras. I reload them after use. I also
> modify panoramic models to take full frame pictures. (Normally, panoramics
> only expose a 12 mm high strip down the middle of the frame, instead of the
> full 24 mm height of a standard 35 mm frame. This seems like a silly waste of
> film to me. In addition, I adapt them to take 24 exposure rolls, rather than
> the usual 12.
