About Me

Hello,

I am passionated about photography since I was 8 - starting with one of these 110 kodak camera, then my first SLR a Fujica STX1N, then Fujica AX5, then Canon EOS 500N.

I currently use a variety of formats: digital (Canon D60, then 20D, then 5D and now 5D2 and powershot G10), film: 35 mm (good old EOS 5), 6X6 (Yashica Mat124), 6X7 and 6X8 (Mamiya RB67) and 4"X5" (Cambo SC).

I am taking mostly abstract and macro pictures (some being abstract!) - and a bit of travel and landscapes.

I still take a lot of black and white and I process/print myself in my own darkroom (up to 6X7). I also scan some of the negs/slides on an Epson Perfection 750 pro and print on a Canon Pixma 9500 pro II.

I try to keep my website up-to-date with a selection of images (collpicto.com).
