Good morning all

[fredjclaus]

Good morning from Western New York everyone. I'm Fred Claus (Yes Santa's big brother). All my life I've been a photographer, from the days of Twin Lens Reflex all the way up to the DSLR days. I gave up my professional work in the early 2000's, and went into the IT field. Now I am doing mobile photography as a hobby and writing articles on the topic. Hope to be able to meet a few nice people here.

Good afternoon from California and welcome to MobiTog. I had a Yashica TLR as my very first camera, a gift from my parents when I was in high school. Where've you had your articles published?

My stories are being posted to fredjclaus.medium.com. I just started there. Most of my previous ones were local papers.

My TLR was a Rolleiflex but I hear good things about Yashica too.

Thanks. I can't wait to get started. I did share one image, and plan to move it over to the Color Challenge soon.

Oh, the Yashica -- I think it was a Model D -- wasn't a match for a Rollei, but it got me started.

Welcome to Mobitog! I started out with SLRs, went digital when it came along, editing with photoshop. Then I got an iPhone and iPad and never looked back. I love having a whole studio at my finger tips!

As everyone is saying jump in anywhere and ask any questions. Looking forward to your images and your input!
