I always love looking at your stuff. I feel like we have very different styles but I can appreciate your photos. I am a photo class drop out myself. I honestly think I got my "eye" from my mom. She would have been a photography major in college but my grandfather would not let her. I love looking at her old stuff...she was really good. I wish I had some of her photos on my computer to share. Ooops...now I am rambling...back to my cocktail..... |

Your macro photos have inspired me. I have been trying but I am no good yet. I was trying to take macro pictures of a bee the other day and it was REALLY hard. I got one *almost* cool shot...but that was it. |

For example, my buddies grandmother wanted to take some family pictures for his grandfathers birthday. His grandparents are multi-millionaires. When it came time to pick the photographer, they decided to choose one over the other because the first, a friend of my buddy, wanted too much money. They never looked at the portfolio of either photographer to see the quality of work. My buddy said, "We're just going to the park to take a few different group shots. These photographers are crazy to think they can charge that much." Personally, I wouldn't want to pay a lot for quality pictures in which I'll rarely view. My girlfriend on the other hand... |

Explain to me "macro shots". How do you get them?
The salt, snowflake and JMS32935's bee looked pretty cool! |

This looks like a good place to ask this question. I have some killer 35mm slides of my wife. Who or where do I go to have those printed or converted to digital?

Another old school photographer here... graduated from Ohio Institute of Photography in 1987. Processed and printed my own stuff for many, many years. Got out of photography about 10 years ago - although I still tinker in it once in a while.
It's funny to talk to "so called" photographers and they have absolutely no clue about the rule of thirds, zone system, f-stops, etc. There's a lot of crap photographers out there that people think is just fantastic. If they only knew... |

Always enjoy your great photos.
I'm not a photographer, I just take pictures. |

Same here. I have so much to learn its not even funny, but I do enjoy it. The problem is my friends see a couple of my pictures and they want me to take theirs. I always defer them to a professional that has the right equipment. Though somehow I'm getting roped into doing some this year, but I'm not accepting payment unless they are 100% satisfied and even then I probably won't charge them anything more than a meal.

I've made that same general comment several times.
It seems like every female around my age that gets a dslr seems to think they are pro and start their own business. Then spam the shit out of facebook with it. A girl I work with was shopping for a dslr last year and I made that observation. She laughed, but she's kind of headed that direction. |
