As a newspaper photographer, I spend 50-60 hours a week doing "work". So my personal photography is what it should be. I may not do a frame a day, but If I do a roll a week, I would be doing very well indeed. When I shoot for myself, I really am far more selective as to WHAT I shoot. Since I shoot nothing but color negative these days, nearly all of my personal work is in black and white. Now as soon as I get the plumber to get my sump pump system here up to code (house is older and non compliant) for the cost of a clean used M6 body, I can finally spend some resources to put up my darkroom again. At the heart of my system is the V35 Leitz Focomat with the color head. I also have the pure black and white standard head for graded papers. For a brief time in my photography career, I worked as a studio photographer. I entered one of my personal photos in black and white that earned me a Kodak Gallery Award. If you want to see that black and white, look for the photo of the two kids looking out of the bus on my web site. http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Museum/2145 gck - ------=_NextPart_000_002B_01BE382F.808B8C40 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D'"MSHTML 4.72.3110.7"' name=3DGENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><SPAN class=3D280150604-05011999><FONT color=3D#000000 face=3DArial = size=3D2>Boy=20 that is challenge for me.
