About

This the Web site journal of Gary Zorko. There are many like it, but this one is his.

Gary takes pictures sometimes. Well, he takes a lot of pictures.

He uses digital cameras (except when he uses a film camera instead, which seems to be happening more often now that he’s developed a nasty addiction to film and film developing). He’s still pretty new at it, but he enjoys the experience and can see incremental improvement in his technique.

Perhaps you can too, if you squint a little.

He uses a wide selection of gadgets and gear. A mostly-inclusive list:
