The Keith Smith collection
Welcome
Welcome to my site, i aim to give you an insight into my obsession with railway photography.
I use both a Canon EOS 3 & Canon 5D II (big thanks to Terry Eyers for the frame). All slide fots pre 2004 were taken using a Canon A1 & Digi fots 2007 - Apr 2009 were taken on a Canon 400D.
I have used various films from Kodak K64 & 200, Fujichrome Sensia and now Fujichrome Provia 100.
The scanning is undertaken on a Nikon Coolscan V and processed via Photoshop CS2/CS4.

I have the honour in being able to display pictures taken by others in this gallery:
*My brother Geoff Gibson
*Good friend Dave Stacey
*The sadly missed Keith Smith
