 					early favorite photograph subjects of mine were, my pet rabbit, sunsets, and flowers. my pet rabbit was always around, and he would also be one of the first subjects i tried with black and white film. the black and white film made his white fur so vibrant. sunsets were another favorite as i had a location available to me the was a hill overlooking a highway. this allowed for great portraits of the sunset as the day was coming to a close. my mom was an avid gardener, and always had new flowers growing. this allowed me to try macro photography, and get very close up beauttiful pictures of flowers

+						various photos captured on digital and 35mm film. the photos captured on 35mm film no longer have their negative with them and are photos of the print. this leaves an odd effect on the photos as the camera captures the glossieness of the print. i like it enough that i will put these here for you to enjoy. i will look into properly scanning the prints in the future

 				<p>
 					i had a few 35mm SLR cameras. I used my moom's Pentax K1000, buti would eventually buy myself a second hand Nikon F2A camera. this was a very professional camera at the time. it had things like interchangle viewfinders and focusing screens. my main 35mm SLR that i would use was a nikon N80 that my mom got me for christmas one year. it was more modern and offered automatic film advance and autofocus, but could be turned to all manual if you wanted that. i would eventually get a digital SLR when the prices came down, and took a fair amount of photos with it. unknown to me however was that i was undiagnosed with ADHD, and like many fixations in my life, i would drop photography like a rock with suddenly no interest after a few years of heavy interest and needing to know everything about it
