Wilson has over 25 years of professional imaging experience, including coverage of several presidential inaugurations, engagements held at the United States Congress and the United States Supreme Court, and has been active taking digital images of many University athletic and campus events. Florida Atlantic University, is a 30,000 student University, which I serve as an Adjunct faculty member in the College of Science; I authored a textbook “Principles of Digital Photography and Post Image Processing” (published by Pearson Education, Boston, 2004, second edition, 2007) which class I teach of the same name: 416-1100.com/gallery/296169/1/. I began taking pictures as a kid in elementary school with a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye 120 roll-film camera, with a darkroom in our basement, we still have the Brownie as a keepsake. Over the years, I became more and more interested in taking better images, moving to Nikon F camera systems, and then to Hasselblad 500C/M and several beautiful Zeiss lenses; then moving to digital in the mid-1990’s with the Kodak/Canon DCS-560 digital camera having 6MP with a $25,000 price, plus the cost of $700/battery, we had 3. Today we are moving towards HDTV capture with Sony's TMW-EX1 solid state, non-linear video camera. Some of the most exciting moments in the digital world of imaging has been shooting College Athletics; the crowds, the famous exciting plays, the holding-up of trophies, the proud parents, coaches, and alumni. People shots in many different venues. As a scientist (bio-chemistry) by training, I also have enjoyed helping the medical community recording surgical techniques in several Hospital settings; I have also become involved with the Law Enforcement community helping those folks with the transition to recording crime-scenes digitally, having written several papers on the topic under several NIJ, US Justice Department grants.
