My first image with my medium format camera.

My parents bought me a Bronica ETRS medium format camera as my Graduation gift, and I was finally able to put it to use (after the first camera, an older model, went belly up). I also put the "new" Besler enlarger to use with it, which will be its primary duty, as my other enlargers are primarly set up for 35mm printing. The two cats belong to my next door neigbors, posing in their front window.

Introduction

Hi, I'm David Woodford, and welcome to my photo blog! I'm currently a student at Central Washington University, in Ellensburg, Washington, majoring in Marketing, and graduating this spring. My home is Covington, Washington. I've been a photographer since my junior year of high school. I work with both film and digital, and maintain a home darkroom. My current projects include IR photos of abandoned coal mining areas in Washington, particularly Cougar Mountain, near Newcastle, WA, and Franklin, a ghost town east of Black Diamond, WA. I'm planning on expanding the project to the coal mines at Roslyn, WA, and possibly mining operations near Issaquah, WA. I also photograph sports, particularly HS and College Basketball. My other hobbies include Geocaching (which is how I discovered these sites), politics, and realtime strategy games.
