One of the first assignments I got after switching to the Kodak/Canon DCS520 was to photograph an
elderly man named Cliff Ervin, who is known around Everett for his hand carved wood items, which he sells at various fairs and markets. At the time, our paper was switching gradually to digital. I was the second photographer in four to get the equipment. This photo was one of several that convinced
management to go full speed ahead with digital. The entire staff was outfitted with the new cameras
shortly after. (I used the light from a small window, a tripod, and a macro lens to make this photo.)
