However, there are many other forms of media that are available including transparent film (digital negatives and color positives), papers designed for watercolor painting (cyanotype, carbon, platinum-palladium prints)&nbsp;or mechanical printing (photogravures).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phil DeShong began taking photos seriously in high school &#8211; many decades ago. &nbsp;His first camera was a used Nikon F. &nbsp;In college and graduate school, he was the chief photographer for his research groups, had a dedicated darkroom, and learned to print&nbsp;b&amp;w&nbsp;and diazo. &nbsp;During his career, Phil and his wife have had the opportunity to live in Europe for several years and to travel extensively&nbsp;which provided many opportunities for photography. &nbsp;During the bulk of his academic career, it was impossible to maintain a darkroom&nbsp;and slides were his chief media, but as soon as digital cameras became available, he bought&nbsp;switched over to digital. &nbsp;His first digital camera was a Leica D-Lux 4 which he still owns and uses while traveling. &nbsp;Phil&#8217;s exploration of non-traditional printing techniques centers on his interests in&nbsp;b&amp;w&nbsp;photography and&nbsp;photo restoration efforts. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
