  I actually respect Ron Paul. He is not afraid standing up for what he knows is right. I do not know if I will vote for him. I don’t know if he can prevail. It is not looking so good right now. Maybe things will change.

  Have you ever used infra red film? I think that’s a must for me next - infra red black and whites

  Nope, but that sounds like fun! I’ll try buying some infrared film later, I bought a Nikon D2000 recently.

  Hi Richard,

  Was just wondering what camera/cameras you use for your photography? Is it all digital?

  I’m mostly digital, but I still do 35mm film once in a while with a Canon or Nikon SLR. I do only gelatin-silver B&W, but would like to learn C41 B&W and C41 color this year.

  Gelatin silver is something I’ve always wanted to do but never really pursued it. I have done a lot of black and white work which is still sat in the boxes of film ready for development, I want to do it myself to have full creative control over the development stages, trouble is I don’t have access to a darkroom anymore!

  Personally I’ve had some amazing results from negative C41 film, I’m a bit of a large format fanatic because it just gives you total control of everything now you can pick a good 40’s press camera like MPP or Speed Graphic up from ebay very cheaply, the film isn’t so cheap though which makes every frame so much more valuable. I tend to work with Fuji 160 S on large format and Fuji 160 C on medium format and 35mm. Kodak Portra 160 NC is great film but more expensive! C41 rocks because it still gives more dynamic range than digital in my experience. Hope you enjoy it anyway, your work is great and can’t wait to see some of the results.

  Very interesting post. Randomly came across it while googling eighteen and moving out. Ironic eh? Can relate alot to the situation in many ways so thanks for writing it. At least I know I’m not alone.

  You’re welcome. I have moved back in with my parents to save on heating and air-conditioning.

  You had given out some photos at DSC, and my daughter Rebeccah brought them home. I looked up your site and browsed through the images. Love your work! You have a wonderful gift. Your tips are so helpful too.

  Thanks. I remember Rebeccah from my Supplemental Instruction for Survey of Biology session yesterday. I assume from your email address that you take photos too; do you have a website?

  I’m sorry to hear that you don’t want to work for a living. Writing for a living is work. No doubt about it. It’s not the same as construction but it definitely involves discipline, not always doing what you want, and dedication.

  good luck.

  I must rephrase that. I don’t want to work in the system for a living. That means I don’t want to have a traditional job or a boss.

  I also don’t want to do physical labor for money.
