Haha I give up on color pictures. There's like.....one. (okay now there's a few more)
Chicago Park West

Champaign Borders

Urbana Canopy Club (not my best ever, but I hadn't planned on going because it was 18+...I only had my small lens and a dying battery and a restriction to the little side part.)

I didn't see you at the Canopy Club! So I was only really awkward twice.

In the one of SK on stage, you can see my hands clapping on the far right. Awesome.

I saw you there. I couldn't actually go in the club area, I was backstage to the side the whole time.

My friend kept telling me to look over there because she had a crush on Tyrone's guitarist, haha. It's cool you got to go though!

Ha yeah. I was trying to convince Sam to walk over and be like "You smell good." and then stick her face in his shoulder and smell but she wouldn't.

And also, posting pictures on a forum is kind of awkward. Because everyone compliments me and I can't be like thank you thanks thank you over and over again that's weird...but I can't just not say thanks that's rude.
So I'm just going to say a big thanks for anyone who compliments my photography.

Megan- Haha, that would've been hilarious. I did not happen to catch a wiff though. Also, I am dumb because clearly your pictures are from the opposite side of the guitarist. I need a nap.

haha thanks

oh man I tell her to do crap like that ALL the time. She's finally learned that I'm kidding. She really used to do stuff like that. It'd be like "NO SAM SAM I WAS KIDDING. STOP. COME BACK."
which reminds me of something else that happened in Chicago...ahaha.
and oh man I have not had the right amount of sleep needed all weekend...I'm still so busy.

Wow. Those pictures are fantastic. I've been getting into photography more and more... and I definitely hear you on the whole colored pictures thing. Black and white is the way to go.

What kind of camera do you use? I have Canon Powershot SD1000 right now. I'm looking into getting the Rebel XT to start.

Right now, I'm using a Lieca M8 but these were shot with a Nikon D50.
I can't stand Rebels. They are so plastic and cheap. You might want to try a Nikon D80. I'm not sure how much more it is, and it is a liiiittle bit more noisy than a Canon, but black and white and noise are friends and it's still good. Or maybe the D40X, it's good too. But NOT the d40. I don't know what the point of that camera is. Bleh.... but canon is good...just not rebels. I've heard Nikon makes better glass though.
But I don't know.... Leica wins against every one.

Really? I'm a sucker for Canons and I've talked to a lot of people who have Rebels, and they seemed to be obsessed with them. Wow. I've been using Canon cameras for almost three years now. I'm not ready to switch brands. Haha.

I've still been researching and comparing different cameras, but so far, the Rebel seems to have the most perks for me. But most importantly, I'm just looking for a camera that's 8+ megapixels, can take RAW images, and be able to hold an SD memory card would be a plus.

Well, I've never shot with canon before. I have held a rebel though...it just felt...wrong.

Oh wow. That's making me think twice. Haha. Like I said, I've been comparing different cameras, but I always come back to the Rebel. I hope to get one for Christmas, so I have a few more weeks to decide.

Your pictures are great, though. How long have you been into photography?
