Your Bio

having already achieved geezerhood at his half-century mark dedmanshootn needed something else to do so took up photography. this, along with gaming and chatting, reading, and enjoying good grub, keeps him amused and in a bare minimum of trouble.


i've been informed my prices are ridiculously underpriced. my philosophy is that any and all art is made to be enjoyed and thus should be affordable so i certainly hope this is true.

i've had several inquiries about my equipment so, for you technophiles out there here it is (such as it is):
digital platform: pentax k100d
(can't call it a camera because many years ago i used cameras and believe me this is NOTHING like them!)
lenses: pentax smc/da 18-55mm (matched to 'camera' so uses all features) vivtar 80-200mm (old 35mm camera lens so only works manually)
accessories: sunpak 660 ut tripod (almost never used due to limitations on personal energy and transportation though i'm hoping that changes, at least the energy) new 'kit' bag (ty chuck) to haul this stuff around on the bus
software: pentax s-sw53 (the basic disc that came with the k100d)

hope this helps for those of you who love tech.


i don't know how to make one of those clickable links yet, its hard to teach an old dog new tricks - i feel a sense of accomplishment just turning on the puter, but you may contact me if you wish at:
