You have a few interesting photos here. I like the perpective and you seem to have a feel for capturing the moment. If you don't mind me asking, what are you using to shoot with?

~Cheers, Glen

Glen,

How nice to get a comment so soon! And thank you for the encouragement. In answer to your question I am using a Pentax K-1000 with a Vivitiar Series 1 28mm 1.9 lens. For the pictures titled "cowgirl" and "areyousatisfied?", I am hand-holding a Vivitar 285 flash set at 1/16 power set on manual, no soft box. For "gogo" it is the same setting but the flash is on camera with a Stofen box. Film is Fuji press 400. I am exploring hand-held flash and wide-angle. It gets tricky trying to control the heat, but I love the unpredictable results.

Gosh talk about bad ratings. Don't expect people here at photonet to understand photographs beyond pretty landscapes, snaps of cute kids or the pet cat. But do keep posting them, and do tell us a bit more about them.
