THE SANTA BARBARA TRAIN STATION

I finally heard from Mack Camera and Video Repair – my Canon 5D is on the way home once again, and should be in my hands by Friday of this week – WOO HOO ! ! !

PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 2nd

Just because most of the photographic world has moved to digital capture and therefore digital processing of images, doesn’t mean infrared is gone forever.
