About me
I am an Australian, currently living in Madison, WI. Since moving to North America I have lived in New Brunswick, Canada and Socorro, NM. I have a PhD in Geology from Monash University in Australia, and am currently an adjunct faculty at Edgewood College in Madison.
I have been taking photos since high school (in Canberra, Australia), but got seriously into photography while enjoying the beauty of the Socorro area in New Mexico. I am now trying to make a part time living selling my photographs.
About the Photos
I use Canon cameras, with a number of lenses:
- Canon 17-40 mm f4
- Canon 50mm 1.8
- Tamron 90mm macro
- Canon 100-400mm
Slides and negatives images were scanned with 4000dpi Nikon scanner. All images are optimized with Photoshop on a Macintosh; currently I use a MacBook, with an external monitor. I calibrate my screen with a Colorvision Spyder. Prints are produced on a Canon IPF5000 printer, with a variety of matte (currently Moab - Entrada paper) and semi-gloss papers (currently Ilford Gold Fibre Silk) This combination of pigment inks and paper ensures that the images are of near archival quality. Other papers are available on request.
The images on these pages are low resolution, and highly compressed. In order to truely appreciate these photos the actual prints must be seen.
