During a sales meeting in 2015, we had the great opportunity to take a very early morning bAlloon ride near Jackson Hole, WY. What a wonderful experience, even though I’m extremely afraid of heights.

In 2016, Eve and I visited Vietnam and Cambodia. Here are some of my favorite images on Angkor Wat when we visited this magical place. This is one of the most beautiful and interesting places I’ve ever visited.
Back in 2011, my wife and I went on a trip through Thailand, and Laos. We visited Chaing Mai in the northern mountainous region in Thailand where we visited many temples, rode elephants, met wonderful people and had some of the best food ever. Here are some of the images taken during our trip.
The photographs in this gallery were all taken with a Kodak Panoram #1 camera which was produced between 1900-1926. The camera produces a 2 1/4” x 7” negative. These images aren’t bad for a camera between 100-120 years old and can still use current film made today..
Panoramic photography and the cameras that take them have always been one of my favorite kinds of photography. As your eyes see the world and your mind conveys the images, it's frustrating for me to see such a narrow view in so many different photos.
I have several different wide-angle or panoramic cameras in my collection and want even more. I regularly shoot with my early Kodak Panoram No.1 camera because it can use 120 film, similar to the Al-Vista Baby camera. Both are early versions of panoramic cameras dating back to the early 20th century.
When the opportunity to purchase a Panon Widelux F7 at a very reasonable price, I bought it and sent it to a highly regarded technician in the US to have the camera overhauled to bring it back to factory specification as well as adding a different rewinding knob to make the film rewind a bit easier. This whole process took around six months due to the timeline of the camera servicing.
My wife and I were planning a two-week trip to Germany, Holland, Belgium, and France, and the one camera I wanted to bring with me on this holiday was the F7, along with about ten rolls of 35mm film, mostly B&W.
Before going on the trip, I had shot a few rolls to get used to how the camera handled and talked to a few friends who have the Widelux camera; they gave me some pointers on the correct ways to hold the camera so my fingers didn't get in all the images. These were helpful, and I'm glad I got many bad habits out of the way before going on this trip.
Here are some of the shots from the trip.
