BEACHED BABY SEAL:
On an Oregon beach, I don't know if the little guy made it or not. Shot with a friend's VOIGTLANDER BESSA-R rangefinder w/ a 17mm lens... I'm guessing I shot it at 1/125 @ f22. I was trying to saturate what little black there was in the scene with the exposure placement method.

THE HAUNTING:
Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh NC. Canon AE-1, Kodak High Speed Infrared film ISO 50 w/ a Wratten #25 filter. Bracketed exposure and focus. This was shot back in the 90's when I was an art student @ Meredith
College in Raleigh before the corruption of photoshop.
TAKE NOTE DIGITAL JUNKIES, THIS WAS FILM!

DEAD SEA AT DAWN:
Shot during another camping trip in the Judaea Desert, Isreal. Shot with a Canon AE-1 f22 @ 1/60. Dawn at The Dead Sea seems to last F O R E V E R, especially when you are waiting for a tow-truck because your jeep broke down. Luckily, other campers let us use their "pellephone" and fed us hot turkish coffee and vanilla wafers.

SOUTHERNAUT:
Shot this during a camping trip to Short Sands Cove, Oregon. I used a Speed Graphic 4x5 press camera, 100 ISO T-MAX sheet film at f16 @ 1/60, and a monopod. I DO NOT recommend the use of sheet film nor monopods on the beach. It's cumbersome and there is no place to rest your camera while changing film holders... SANDY!
