Just foolin' around with my camera.
Thought you might enjoy.

That old church was founded in 1862.
Couple more around town.

retodd7711 · 02-22-2009, 07:20 PM

last ones for tonight
Obviously I've got a long way to be a good photographer,
but I'm trying.
Fell free to post some of your favorite pics you've taken!

Yeah that last church one would of been really nice if you had of panned up and caught the cross and maybe walked forward just a little to square up the frame of view and a little more detail.

I'm no expert either, but its easier to point others flaws when your not the one standing behind the camera.

None the less I think they are killer pics and I wish my Truck was on the road so I could shoot some old looking photos.

The power lines obviously detract from the picture.
Sun was setting, losing detail and color on the truck.
It's tough when you think "That's perfect"
and then find out it didn't show what you thought it would.
Well, I can't think of a better subject matter than an ol' truck so
I'll keep shooting until I get it right!

What kind of camera you have man ? That third one is pretty cool

jason65 · 02-22-2009, 08:06 PM

The ol timey look to them is cool.

It's a Kodak easy share. About $100 from Wally-world.
See ten posts his Saturday pics in the 67-72 forum and I
would like to have something similar in the 60-66 side.
If you've got one you're proud of post it up!

Nothing a little time in photoshop can't take care of.

Pretty nice shots for a 100 buck camera.
