Hi Doug,
It was a pleasure to meet you in SJ on Winchester Ave. I bought my Canon FTB while stationed in Vietnam and learned the basics of photography through trial and error. A camera has been with me forever.

It's like a treasure chest finding old slides and negatives that I had stashed in old boxes in the garage. After my mother passed, I claimed all of the old photos and purchased an Epson V500 about 2 years ago. I digitalized over 19 gigs using the quick user's guide. I did not know what setting to use for the different media. Your explanation of imaging helped quite a bit and I will rescan some of my favorites.

I have read your articles and will be sending your web site to my 2 globe trotting photo shooting cousins. They both have good composition skills and your web site will certainly help them improve their skills and find inspiration in your articles and photos.
