Pictures...

peace and blessings,

wow, two post in one month...im on a roll!

im glad people are enjoying the pictures. please pass the link on to anyone that would be interested in the pictures. photography, along with poetry, is an old love that has been rediscovered. i enjoy shooting at angles and in black and white. black and white pictures just seem so mysterious, almost as if they are holding a secret. the battle is knowing WHEN to shoot in black and white. thanks to digital cameras, all one has to do now is "hit a button"....back in the day, it was either change film or carry two camera's. I recently upgraded to a Kodak DX6490 (still not a super duper camera but good enough for me) from one of the smaller models and im having a ball. the zoom is stronger, more pixels and a brighter flash. im still in learning mode and making mistakes but im not looking for this to become a job. it would be nice to be the next Gordon Parks (R.I.P.)but this is just a hobby, one that i really enjoy.

also, i got a new poem running through my head...im going to try and get it together, write it and maybe post it. i did finish a piece about my daughter but its still in rough draft stage but i might post it to get some feedback...sorta like work shopping it. we shall see.

Onelove,
Copa
