This page is intended for monographs on various critical / aesthetic aspects of photography. If you are looking for any of my past technical articles relating to analog photography they can be found under the HISTORY tab at left.

I am no longer writing about the Zone System or doing research on new contrast and tone control techniques for analog photography and therefore articles found on this page will only be technical in nature if I happen to stumble on something important that is not widely known and should be shared. The only other exceptions will be, as in the case of the Matting & Framing article, when I need to provide practical information to buyers / collectors of my photographs.

Otherwise my writing will be limited strictly to matters concerning fine art photography and my work in that field. I have made the decision to strictly limit all my present and future efforts to the production of photographs and the few written pieces you will find here. The research and inventing I will leave to younger photographers better versed in computer programming, the new frontier for photographic technique invention.

As I write this I am working on several articles at once and will post them as they are completed.
