When I leave the house it is always the same routine; wallet, keys, money, handkerchief (yes.. I do carry one), and camera.Your camera can be as complicated as one of my Nikon's, my Canon advanced pocket cameraVinnie Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970354550351054931.post-27179371295910750312008-11-10T19:31:00.000-08:002008-11-10T19:41:32.216-08:00Remembering Veterans DayThis collage of photos was taken over several years at Arlington National Cemetery, The Wall at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery. Making this collage was a special project for me. The center photo of the group of soldiers outside of the barracks is from WWII. Fourth man from the right, bottom row is my dad. These men were all specialists training at Ft.

When I came back, I found the cat stretched out on the couch watching the US Open with a Coors. I was PO'ed, he left the fridge open and took the last one. It was 110° in the shade that day.BELphotoshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05289042765927045282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970354550351054931.post-13639933121726676112008-02-21T13:30:00.000-08:002008-10-13T09:50:39.877-07:00A Lifetime of PhotographyI have been an avid photographer for over 50 years. Whenever I put that in to print, I always wonder if people have this vision of some old geezer sitting in the park with a Kodak Brownie and his nurse wiping the drool from his mouth. I'd like to say that is very far from the truth, but getting closer.My very first camera was an Argus Seventy-Five (manufactured 1949-1958) shown here.
