3. You are showing considerable talent.

Thank you for letting me vicariously follow your education

[Ava]

5. thank you! i appreciate it

only started working with this fully manual 35 mm camera a few weeks ago, so that means a lot to me :pals:

4. Love the bookshelves...

And the top two stadium ones have pretty interesting contrast for the sky. Are you using a red filter outdoors?

Great work, Ava. :applause:

[Ava]

6. thanks! i love sitting in my papa's library

he has so many books!

i wasn't using any filter on the cameras. i had my camera while visiting my grandparents. one day the weather seemed perfect for black and white photos, so i hopped on a bike and rode over to the abandoned football stadium to take a few photos. :)

7. I love black & white photos of people.

[Ava]

9. i do too.. i've taken a few

but since i've only just started working with the camera i find that stationary objects are helping me learn more in a short amount of time about exposure and focus.

a couple pics of people that i've taken -

i've taken a few more, but i don't feel comfortable posting photos of faces on the net. one of these is of the hands and the other is a profile shot.

12. I love all the shadows in your photos. You can't get that with color photography.

When I had a camera I was strictly an automatic camera person.

[Ava]

14. i prefer black and white photos

:)

8. You've got a good "eye" for black and white.

I like the way the clouds in those first two shots make them seem dramatic.

[Ava]

10. thanks! i thought the clouds would make for nice black and white photos

and that abandoned field is a cool location for photos

[AlecBGreen]

11. cool!

i like the eagle :bounce:

[Ava]

15. thanks

:hi:

[AllenVanAllen]

13. Very nice Ava

the best. great job! :applause:

[Ava]

16. thanks! i had fun taking the pics of the abandoned football stadium

17. I Use Photoshop (7.0) To Scan Images...

That way you can make any adjustments before you save them. If you don't have Photoshop (which is crazy if you're into photography) you can find the older versions pretty cheap.

I like your pics by the way!
