Funny you should post a thing like this. It's these silly kids i was on about.

Not funny at all - your thread inspired it.

Now we're on the subject (again), try looking up "scene queens".

I saved it - I just responded to your other thread, and I'm in the middle of writing a blog post myself for photography stuff. I'll poke around in a bit.

Sure, good luck with your blog.

Don't worry Summer. You wont officially be an old fart until your hipster friends are those who are worried about or already had a hip replacement...

I've seen your skills as a photographer improve in the short time I've seen/evaluated your work. I think it'd be a great idea to start a blog. Maybe you can give viewers the power to give you.... Suggestions? Assignments? I can't think of the particular term I want, but I hope you understand. I'm excited for you to get your own DSLR.

'Hipsters' don't exist.
Emo originated as a type of music.
Scene originated as a type of fashion.

My time studying art at college says very differently.

Right now I'm starting just by saying how *I* got started and what I do on a limited budget and how I get around obstacles, as I obviously can't be the only person who is out there looking to do this and can't afford shit. Today marks day 1 of a 30 day photo challenge for me, which I will post the results of in December. Eventually the blog will also detail research, improvements, explorations, and other stuff. I may eventually do what you said. Suggestions are always helpful, of course. It stems from the need to document stuff - my IB art class in high school was incredibly into that with what amounted to a visual journal.

David basically dumped his entire camera set up, with the exception of his 40lb tripod which I refused, on me. I have a Canon dslr and a film slr at my disposal now, and 4 different lenses. He's going to let me fuck with the dslr by myself, and give me hands-on lessons with the slr, as that's the one with the macro lens.
