Re: Photography

Jacob,
there are some great books available but I always found the best thing to do was look at photos others have taken. Look at the composition, the light, the camera angle. In some of those most spectacular shots ever the photog had waited sometimes for weeks, before everything was just right. National Geographic photogs shoot several hundred to several thousand pictures for each one that ends up in the magazine. As a matter of fact, National Geo has a book or two on photography that you should check into. Everyone has their favorite camera. It is their old friend, one that they can depend on, one that they know the features they use daily. But it is not the camera that makes a great shot as much as they person behind it. My camera of choice for most of my life was a Hanimex Pratika. I knew what it could do and what it couldn't but it felt good in my hands. My family gave me a Canon Rebel XT which has some incredible features but for everyday stuff, my wife's Sureshot is what gets turned on.

Re: Photography

Pentax, im surprised that that wasnt an option on the poll.

I had a bunch of great lenses from my 35mm cameras (2 very nice 50mm's a nice 28mm, and some various zooms.) so i decided to take a look at pentax when i was shopping around. Now my camera lineup is a Pentax SuperProgram, Pentax K1000, and a Pentax k2000.

I am pretty good in a conventional darkroom (photo paper, developer, stop bath, fixer, enlargers, etc) and alot better in Photoshop.

Re: Photography

Nice photography! I just took a look at you're links here and I see you really fill the frame with each shot resulting in the most visual information in each frame and leaving no wasted space, nice workshop too, wish I had that

Re: Photography

I enjoy taking some photos and everything, I have always purchased Canon's Myself(just your simple point and shot ones, but I want a nicer one in the future, but money is an issue).

Also with my University they have a program called Fresh Fotos, which they choose 12 freshman to photograph their freshman year experiance. With this they gave us a simple point and shoot Nikon but sometimes I use my Canon. Which ever one seems to be handy.

I shall be getting my January picks up there later today when I'm done at work. Hopefully
