# About me
I'm a photographer with special interests in landscape, architecture and humanscapes.In the fall of 2011 my wife decided it was time for her to retire, and I sort of said, “what the heck” and decided to join her even though I’m younger than her. At that time I deleted nearly 1000 images in my online portfolio and pretty much disappeared from DeviantArt. We bought an RV and spend until 2017 in a nomadic “walkabout” of North America. We had a lot of fun, but artistically my brain was on hiatus. At the end of 2017 we sold the RV and returned to Wisconsin to be near family.
At that time I put up a few images but my heart wasn’t into sharing so I’ve been quietly lurking on the sidelines.
When I still had my studio I regularly shot tasteful nudes with an emphasis on monochrome figure studies. I’ve worked with dozens of models and non-models glorifying a wide variety of body shapes, sizes, colors and conditions.
With no studio and a body that is no longer quite as willing to do what I ask of it I’m trying to figure out what I want to shoot all over again.
Nowadays I exclusively shoot digital. And while film artists like Ansel Adams might spend days in the darkroom perfecting their exposures with dodging and burning, I love the freedom that digital give to present the image you see in your brain and not the image your lens can capture in any given moment.

Your Welcome. Such a lovely mood in that image.
I've got friends all over the UK and wish I could get my body over there again to do some shooting but it doesn't look like that's gonna happen for a while.

Thank you so much for your time to make such a creative critique on my photo. You are right about the most things you mentioned. The only i have to answer is that the biggest exposure time is something that i thought it too but something was missing to me... the tripod!!!
Thanks again

And you too Burcu my friend....
I'm not much of a party person -- but I filled up the refrigerator with fresh seafood for the weekend, and am looking forward to a nice relaxing transition to yet another year that I will forget to write properly for the first 6 months......
