Your Bio

From the province of Québec, Canada.

It all began with an Instantmatic of some sorts many years ago, then a very manual 35 mm Zenith.

My photography is not business related and I do not make a living out of it : all I do is enjoy it. I have a few projects, but that's just to get the creative juices going, or because it is significant to me.

In negative film, I'm using two older Canons. In digital, it's Nikons. Software wise, I use NX2 but my objective is to do as little editing as possible.

I have a soft spot for black and white and street photography.

This site is new and I expect to have downloaded what I want to download by December 2009. 30 October, I am almost thru with Marrakech pics. I have added a few selected pics of the Morroco album to Street Scenes as that's how I feel about them.

One-Photo-a-Day : It begins 1 November 2009.  Not sure why I do this and how long I will do it.  As the name goes, I'll post one photo per day, taken on that day.  As those familiar with photo sites know, nothing original here.  Enjoy.
