Nice shots

All three of them are very well-done. I especially like the bottom one. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, thanks everyone! I'm hoping to set up a blog at squarespace.com sometime soon to try to see if I can sell prints. That is, when I get the time!

Can I show more? Sure....

The photos above were shot with my Digital Rebel XTi. The following two were shot with my old 1970 Canonet Canonet QL17 GIII film camera. Used b/w film for these. The first is my daughter, Adrienne. I was going for that old 50s look. The second one is, again, on the Banning Bench.

And I have time for just a few more. Those of you who are familiar with San Diego should recognize these places. Shot with original Canon Digital Rebel.

If you like b/w, then you should like these as well.

The first two are from my Canonet film camera using FP4+ developed in Rodinal to give it a somewhat dark, grungy look to the photograph.

The third one was shot with my original Digital Rebel just down the street from my house. The moon did actually lay bewteen the streetlamps, but because they both have different light sources I had to take two exposures and combine them to get the image the way I saw it that night.
