I'm presently working for the State of California's energy commission where I write software for energy simuation models. I started in photography in high school, and my first serious camera was a used Nikon F with the old non-TTL Photomic meter. Ten years and a few resistor rings later I was ready to make the switch to the camera I wanted in the first place: a Leicaflex SL. I'm now using a small fleet of Leicaflexes and the occasional R4sP and currently use 8 lenses: 35mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R 50mm f/2.8 Summicron-R 60mm f/2.8 Macro-Elmarit-R 90mm f/2.0 Summicron-R 100mm f/2.8 APO-Macro-Elmarit-R 280mm f/4.0 APO-Telyt-R 400mm and 560mm f/6.8 Telyt Over the years I've also used a few other lenses, some borrowed and some bought and re-sold: 21mm f/4.0 Super-Angulon-R 35mm f/2.0 Summicron-R 90mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R 135mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R 75-200mm f/4.5 Vario-Elmar-R 180mm f/4.0 Elmar-R 180mm f/3.4 APO-Telyt-R 250mm f/4.0 Telyt-R 280mm f/4.8 Telyt 400mm & 560mm f/5.6 for Televit My favorite subjects are wildlife, particularly birds, and I'm also responsible (if that's the right word) for infecting several people with the desire for the 400mm f/6.8 Telyt.
