This was my first time to visit Viola, Wisconsin. Ever since I started my photography business, I found myself spending much less time on my personal work. Although it may not seem very productive, I still made some progress. Not only did I manage to move from 4×5 large format to digital medium format, but …
Fall Colors Gibraltar Rock State Natural Area, Wisconsin, United States, 2014
End of Summer 2014 Madison, Wisconsin, USA, 2014
For years, I have been shooting both film and digital. Yet this year might be my last year shooting film, for it has become less and less practical for me in the past few years. This is just a thought, and still in doubt is whether or not I would give up films before I …
