Hello,

My name is Ricky Shull. I am an avid photographer who has recently made the switch from digital to film format. I shot digital for about the last five years and want to develop my skills in the world of film. I currently own and shoot with a Pentax K1000 and an AGFA PB20 Readyset foldable camera. In addition to photography I am a fan of music, and am passionate about cars and the automotive world (I own a 1987 BMW 635csi). I am from and live in Kansas City, Kansas.

Here is a sample of my digital work, as well as some recent scans of my film work. As you will see I've intertwined my hobbies and shoot a lot of automotive photography . I am very much looking forward to shooting film, learning more about the tricks of the trade and discussing subjects on this board!

Welcome to APUG.COM. I invite you to check out the Wyandotte Camera Club Dead Link Removed. Our next meeting is Wednesday, 18 February, at 1737 N. 82nd, Kansas City, KS. Thereafter we meet the 2nd Wednesday until taking a summer break. The club was founded in 1938, and remains devoted exclusively to B&W photography, either film or digital.

Welcome to APUG, I wanted to see who's using the nick name my sister hung on me more than 60 years ago(and still calls me by it).

Thank you for the welcome, everybody!

Jim, I will have to check out that club.


Here is another photo I have just finished - It is supposed to be a visualization of one's memory by "opening the doorway" into one's mind. I filled the doorway with items that capture people's imaginations: animals, family, motorsports/mechanics, music. I was a little hurried to finish this photo so I will probably revisit, but am content with the results.

Hi Ricky, welcome!

That first photo of your 635csi is absolutely beautiful - I love it!
