Ted D. Bear

Theodore D. Bear, multi-talented dilettante.

Note: Although I haven't posted a film shot in a long time,
I still use and love film. Why so long? As I said,
for me, film is now a "niche" medium. In other words,
it's not my everyday drug anymore, but more like
the one you savor once in a long while :-)

Great shot and angling of the scan, Love the 3Dness of medium format. BV
