My name is Ryan Marchman and I love photography. I am single, 26 years old, live in olathe Kansas and I work as a network abuse specialist for a major web hosting company. I started photography when I was 15 years old with a crappy samsung digital point and shoot that my parents bought me for christmas. I soon got fed up with the lack of control that camera provided and switched to film slr's. I love film with all of my heart but I am usually pretty broke so having to buy film every time I go shoot was becoming a financial obstacle to me going out to shoot. I recently decided to shoot mainly digital for concert and portrait photography but will still shoot film for my explorations into old and abandoned buildings. Wow I have been talking too long. BYE!

Thank you!

I live in Kansas too!

I love the photos of the old silo and hospital. Would you mind terribly if I asked where these places are exactly? I would love to see them in person.

If you don't want to post it in the comments here, could you send me an email?
