DOG YEARS

The life & times of a Guntown graphic designer, illustrator & photographer

Please be seated. I’m always drawn to solitary things, a lone tree on a hill, an old tractor in a field and random bits of furniture, like this old chair in my neighbor back yard.

If you have a need for one, you have a need for two? Some accidental double exposures at Carrie Furnaces during Rivers of Steel's Festival of Combustion. From my Zine Doubble XXposure.

Photography has been something I have been doing for a hobby since since 1976. I don’t know if I’ve come full circle with it, but since COVID-19 has become a part of our existence, I have been shooting and developing more and more film and loving it. I still shoot digital, shooting film has really affected the way I shoot.

I don’t think there is a better feeling than being at the beach. Without a doubt my favorite place to shoot people being people.

In camera double exposure of my Mamiya C220. When I started shooting film again, I went outside my comfort zone of 35mm and jumped into Medium Format with a Mamiya C22. The Mamiya C22 has a quark where if you forget to advance the film you will double expose, even multiple expose. This is a twist on that, but using a function in the Fujifilm X-T1.
