My background is in historic preservation. I've had to shoot a few photos to document things in challenging environments over the years, and I've come to enjoy low light without a flash, but it is not easy. In college I shot with a Canon AE-1, usually with Kodak TMAX 100. I had a lot of fun with that setup, and sometimes the shot even turned out well. I cannot claim to be a decent photographer, in fact I'd say I'm a pretty terrible one, but it's always gratifying for a shot to come thorough with great contrast and depth. There is so much detail to be captured in every shot, it's just a matter of setting it up properly for the situation to get it all.
Nice work Jerry!
