The story behind the photos

The equipment

All the photos you see on this site were taken with a Pentax K1000. I have only used 2 lenses with this camera until just recently, a 28-70mm standard, and a 70-210 zoom. I have now switched to the Tamron AF28-200mm Super II, becaues my 28-70mm has finally died. You may be asking why a Auto Focus lense on a manual camera? After 15+ Years with the K1000 body I'm expecting it to go too (keeping my options open). I don't use a flash in any of my shots because I like the way the camera can adjust to any situation. Also because I travel lite and hate to take extra gadgets and batteries around. You may ask why I use such an outdated camera? Because it still produces the results I want, and it has an all metal body. I have taken my camera all over the world and used it in all weather conditions, it's a great tuff camera.


The WEB page

Yes the pages are slow. All the photos are in high resolution and compressed down to a manageble size. All for your viewing pleasure (It's your vaction so take your time). I don't have any stories about the photos you see here, I let them speak for themself (pictures worth a thousand words, right?) Plus I don't want to bore you with my ramblings like I'm doing now. I used a HP Pavilion computer with a Epson Perfection 636U scanner with the help of Adobe and IBM's web page designing software.
No photos were harmed in the transfer from print to page. That also goes for any animal shot I do. Some are wild and some are in rehabilitative captivity.
