My Mom handed me her small Kodak camera while we were on vacation out West in the mountains. The world through the small square viewfinder was an instant attraction to me. I photographed everything, trucks, cars, the world moving by out the window of my Dad’s Oldsmobile Delta 88 station wagon. I have slowed making photos at times but it always draws me back in some form. Today I have learned to not be quite the so critical editor. I have moved away from the over processed HDR types of images and found interest again in making photos like I did years ago, imperfect, spontaneous and most important to me, the scenes that catch my attention. I have learned with age that simplicity is key to my happiness. Long gone are the 30 lbs of gear in backpacks. Today I have shoot with and Fuji XT-5 and a couple of lenses. Long gone are the subscriptions to Adobe suite and Photoshop. I develop my photos with two simple apps. I hope you enjoy the photos that I share. Just know they brought me joy in the making. SteveO
