Your 2004 photos, I just love those. It's always nice to see a different approach with sport photos, something different than the very colorful, and very digital image usual that we see

Todd love your images in Athens. Lived there through my high school years 72-76. Went to school at the American Community School, a DOD school in Halndri. Was the best expreience of my life and opened my eyes to photography. There is so much to see and photograph in Greece. Enjoy your travels. Always look forward to your posts.

This is superb, as usual. I love the homemade Lensbaby look. I use the Leica M and a hblad-500 with Lomo films, so this experience is doubly inspiring. Your ability to show us how to use the gear (including 4x5-I learned how to load sheet film from your tutorial!) gives us the technical acumen to overcome the fear of messing up in the field-but more to the point, your results speak to the muse that is within us to be an artist and a storyteller. I think my retirement plans have just been re-focused. (waiting for my X2D) Hopefully, my wife will understand!
