i liked it when all i had to worry about was iso, aperture, & shutter speed.


That's all you need to worry about with digital as well. Don't get freaked out by the technology.
If in doubt, shoot everything in RAW and sort it out in Photoshop :)

Florya, the Eiffel tower one is wonderful, great framing and contrasts.

I like the kind of washed out look of these they have a cool 70s feel about them

screamingskull 05.13.2008 03:20 PM

thats just from only using film, and most importantly refusing to put a flash on my camera.

Stick with it! I was overseeing the styling for a photography shoot the other day for work and the guy did great stuff, I was too focused on the photos to ask him about his camera but I will next time. It looked like he had a normal camera linked up to a computer, do you know how that works? He would set up the photo then you could just press enter on the computer and the camera would take a photo.

I did a tiny bit of photography during uni (just one mandatory subject) a while back but really I have no idea about it so excuse my ignorance with these things.

oh, well, i put myself down, i am pretty good with a digital. But i mostly just use it on 'automatic' which is sad. I have a Nikon D70S which is collecting dust under my computer table.

I did a photography diploma at college and left with a Distinction grade, i am now at the end of my 1st year at Art School (university) where i am studying Fine Art. So thats where i am photographically (is that a word?).

College was all the basics, so we did a year of film and darkroom printing and then a year of digital. I HATED the digital, and spent most of the 2nd year doing colour film and printing in the darkroom instead of using their digital cameras.

Art School is so freakishly laid-back i can do whatever i want, so all i do is photograph my friends with colour film, and present those photo's in weird wall space pieces and i get awesome grades!

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND ART SCHOOL FOR EVERYBODY, EVEN IF YOU SUCK AT ART.

I love that you use film all the time, not a lot of people do that anymore. The past couple of days I've have an urge to get out my Pentax and take some pictures, but I haven't had the chance really.

You make art school sound sooo tempting, hopefully someday I'll be at one too.

That does sounds fun indeed, it's good you're getting to explore the kind of photos you like. I went to a college of fine arts which is part of a bigger university but the college has its own arty campus really far away to the main one. I studied design though so there was no chilling out for me, our course was so jam-packed and difficult that I never got much time to explore anything, just go from one full-on thing to the next, so yeah I did some short intro to photography just so that we had it as a skill when we left uni. So you're very lucky..enjoy!
