  • Posting Film to Flickr

    I got my first roll of color film back from the shop today and I’m thrilled to be able to start posting pics from my Rebel 2000 SLR. I’ve owned the camera since college and I’m really glad I finally know how to use it! I’m still figuring some things out, like getting the right…

  • Moo Mini Cards

    My moo mini cards arrived today! Moo mini cards and little cards that are smaller than business cards (they are really tiny!) but can be used as calling cards. Moo is the company that makes them. They are partnered with Flickr, so they automatically allow you to import photos from your flickrstream to make the…

  • It’s All in the Details

    Last night in my photography class we worked on printing and I made my first print!  Woohoo!  Going into this class I had no idea how involved it would be.  I thought that all the work was in the taking of the picture, but that’s really just the tip of the iceberg. We started out…

  • Procrastination

    This morning I had the full intention of getting out and getting my photo assignment done, and going for a nice long bike ride. However, there was this little furry person who really didn’t like that idea. He’s decided to hold me down with force by laying down on me every time I sit down.…

  • In black and white

    While I’m hoping to find a Canon EOS 50D under the Christmas tree, I’m currently making use of my Digital Elph and my Rebel 2000 35mm cameras as best I can.  I started my black and white film photography course last night and, even though I’ve owned the camera for years, I learned for the…
