all out of cameras

Wed Nov 18, 2009, 5:37 PM
Alas, my love affair with a friend's borrowed Nikon D70 came to its inevitable end (much thanks again, Dave) a month after my fledgling attempts at creating photographs. That left me with a point-and-shoot Canon. It took not-so-bad pictures for what it was, so I thought that perhaps, with a little photo manipulation, something halfway decent might come out of it. The camera promptly, and somewhat mysteriously, went belly-up and refused to even power on. That left a very, very cheap point-and-shoot Nikon as my only photographic outlet. Just as suddenly and mysteriously, that camera began to behave as if it had a shuffle mode, randomly turning out sepia pics, or blurry long-exposure pics, intermingled with the very occasional normal photo. Is this a joke that the universe finds hilarious? Am I on Candid Camera?

I am so new that I'm still in the packaging. I uploaded my first deviations the day after my first beginners' photography class on May 5 '09. I welcome ANY and ALL advice, tips, and suggestions so that I can learn and improve! Right now,I'm just getting my sea legs, experimenting, and throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks.
