SWEET!
ive loved photography since the moment i touched a camera!
and accoding to my art teachers/parents/friends i'm not too bad at it...but hopefully you guys will be honest because i'm never sure if they're just being nice

anyway i was also wondering if anybody here is a photographer by profession because i'll start applying to colleges soon and i'm kinda taking it into consideration.

anyway heres the photos......some are from a nikon F1 and some are from my rebel xti....
and check out in the self portrait, the camera is my newly aquired contax rx....im totally in love with it!

i've got plenty more to post up so let me know if you like them


EDIT: sorry for the massive pictures im not so famiiar with posting pictures online

If you're looking for a entry level dSLR, some good choices are the nikon d40/d40x or canon rebel xt/xti

I shoot a Canon Xti. Word is that the Nikons are better; but I've been fine with mine.

1. The canons don't have auto iso, and they don't fit in your hands the way nikons do.
2. the d40x is NOT worth the $200 more that they charge for it, while it can shoot 3fps compared to the d40's 2.5fps, the d40x actually has a slower flash sync (layman's terms--it can't shoot as fast of a shutter speed with the flash), which is much more important.
3. The difference between 10 megapixels and 6 megapixels isn't noticeable unless you're looking at meter-wide prints with a microscope.
4. Save your money and purchase the incredible sb-400 flash and/or put that money towards a decent telephoto.
5. Buy from amazon, ritz, or adorama

Photo gear tends to retain value pretty well (especially lenses); so don't be afraid to pull the trigger.

I'm gonna chime in here and say that meter-wide prints are massively sexy if you have the resources to make them. If you get everything sharp and clear, it rules.

Also, higher-resolution pictures don't look like crap when you crop them.
