i was quite into taking pictures for awhile. there was a period in the early 2000s where digital SLR (signle lens reflex) cameras were quite expensive. while film ones were often cheap second hand. film was also relatviely easy to get developed at a pharmacy or at a camera store as these were still a thing and did a nice job at developing photos. during this period of time i would begin learning how to take photographs with a 35mm film SLR.

the camera belonged to my mom. it was a Pentax K1000. the camera was helpful in that you, the photography had to control all aspects of the photograph to produce a good photo. the shutter speed, aperature, focus, and zoom if the lens offered it, were all up to you to decide. combined with some knowledge about these settings from a book i had been reading, i began taking photos. the Pentax was helpful in that it has a light meter in the view finder to let you know when you had the shutter and aperature adjusted correctly for the amount of light around you. i would still have to learn about composing photos and making use of differentfocusing techniques to frame my shots though

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

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
