Grain Elevator - Conrad, Montana - 24 April 2009. Stopped at Conrad to shoot a newer grain facility along I-15. I shot with the Pentax SP and an Olympus 35RC. I used 20, 28, 50, and 105 lenses on the Pentax – about froze the digits off my hands it was so cold! There were some rail cars present that gave a sense of scale to the images. The light and shadows on this facility were really neat.
I'm an emergency room physician since 1982. Currently I do what is called "locum tenens," working at various locations for weeks to months at a time. States I've worked include New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana, Arizona, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Montana.
My Father got me started with adjustable cameras in the early 1960's. My gear includes basically three systems - Pentax Spotmatic (mid-late 1960's); Nikon FE2/F3HP (mid-1980's); and Leica M2/M4 with late Canon LTM optics and one Voigtlander lens. My first serious digital was a Panasonic LUMIX DMC LX2 - a startlingly versatile little instrument. I've recently picked up a Canon 5D body - on which I'll use my Asahi Super Takumar and Auto Vivitar lenses until I can afford some more contemporary optics. There are an additional fifteen or so 35mm and 120 roll cameras.
