I had Merry pick up this camera for me at BigLots for about $40. It was 3.1 megapixel, no frills, but I should have known. It had a nice screen, some decent options, and took decent video, but as a camera, it just sucked. It didn’t come with a card, only internal memory, and no [...]
Here are some miscellaneous photos I took over the years that may not be particularly artistic shots, but I really like them. This first one was taken in 2000 with my first digital camera (Agfa ePhoto) in Dunkirk, New York. I love that pier, at the end of Central Avenue, and I snuck a shot [...]
I bought this camera at OfficeMax for under $200, including 64 Mb SmartMedia Card (came with an 8 Mb) and batteries. It was basically a discontinued (and discounted) item, and the last one in the store. Its “resolution maxes out at 1600×1200 pixels (in SHQ, HQ, or SHQ-TIFF mode) off a 2.11-megapixel CCD” with a [...]

I always say we don't get much around here as far as sunsets, but we get the most amazing twilights anywhere. IF you've seen some amazing colors in the sky in Hawaii, or Alaska, or out in the deset – YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. We have amazing twilights ALL YEAR ROUND. Sometimes it's like a nearly [...]
At the Native Offerings Farm website, I just put up a bunch a photos, mostly mine, as computer desktop wallpapers. For now, they are on the “downloads” page, but may move to somewhere else on the site later. There's sunflowers, farm scenery, etc. … Enjoy!
The last month or so, I've started to have trouble with the auto-focus on my camera, an Olympus C-211 ZOOM. It's sort of hit-and-miss. Anyway, I discovered I LIKE new tractors as well as old ones. And as long as it isn't John-Freakin-Deere Green, I don't mind the color not being red. But first, at [...]
It was a somewhat dreary day when I took these photos. I saw the pizza box when I walked the dog, then came back for my camera. The image really made a statement. I honestly don't know WHAT statement that is, but it's open to multiple interpretations. That's why it's art, right? Anyway, they were [...]
Here are some random (but nice) photos taken with my first digital camera, an AGFA ePhoto 780, and I bought it through my friend Steve as an AOL special, about $200 at the time. It took alright pictures, but only on highest setting could compete (almost) with amateur analog 35mm cameras. But it was still [...]
