I was born in Little Rock, Arkansas. Most of my school years were in Bryant, Arkansas. During those years, I lived in the house where Back Yard Burgers is now located. I have enjoyed photography for most of my life. In 1975 I bought my first 35mm film SLR (Nikkormat FT2) in Barbados from a shipmate. I literally wore it out. It can still be repaired but I'm pretty sure I will be Digital from here on out. I have been using a couple of digital "point and shoots" and am still trying to decide on a DSLR but by the time I have about decided, the bigger, better, cheaper (inexpensive) model comes out. I have lived in other states and countries, thanks partly to the Navy, and that has provided me with many great photo opportunities. Wish I had had a digital back in those days... but then that would only mean a million+ photos to sort through now. Ha !
