Bio sketch for Steve Homer

[shomer@xxxxxxx (Steve Homer)]

My thanks to David and Edward for the information about 
Graflok-back Graflex cameras that accept 70mm format.

Here's my introductory biographical sketch:

- Name:                 Steve Homer (shomer@xxxxxxx)
                        http://www.teleport.com/~shomer

- Profession/Study:     Technical Writer

- Country:              United States

- Personal history of photography 
                        
                I'm a largely self-taught photographer with
                no art-school background. I've taken a few
                weekend photography workshops, and a couple of
                evening classes in darkroom techniques. 

- preferred subjects:   People, mostly women, in the studio.
                        Many of my subjects have tattoos and 
                        body piercings.

- materials (film, filters, paper, chemistry):

                I use TMAX-100 in medium format for most of
                my work. I began experimenting with infrared
                films this Spring, and have tried the Kodak HIE,
                Konica, and Ilford films in 35mm format, and
                the Konica in 120 format. I'm hoping to use filters
                to get more interesting results with the Ilford
                SFX-200 film, and to begin using HIE in 70mm format.
                
                I generally use TMAX developer for film, and Ilford
                Universal paper developer with Ilford MG FB paper.

- Other strange hobbies:        skateboarding

- How did you find out about this list: Willem-Jan mentioned it
                                        in an email.

- Expand on anything photographic you like:

        I'm a member of Galleri 8, a cooperative gallery in 
        Portland, Oregon, USA. We pride ourselves on exhibiting
        "Art at Risk," and are always anxious to get slides from
        artists whose work is innovative and/or focused on the
        human form. We take no commissions on sales. Please email
        me if you'd be interested in sending slides or in receiving
        some information about our gallery.
