Here is this weeks 52 Week Photo Challenge: Week 1 – Black and White. This is another new challenge that is starting up from The Girl That Dreams Awake. If you don’t know her, you should check out her blog.
I decided for this week I would use candid photos of people that I have taken. Enjoy.

Did you get any photos yesterday?

Nope. I wasn’t feeling well. And today I’m back at work. But the weekend is almost here. I told my wife I wanted to go to a place we had passed through before, Mt. Carmel in Utah. And she pulled up a site that showed the road has been closed due to two large boulders, each bigger than a house, that fell onto the road and damaged and obstructed our only route. So I don’t know where we’re going this weekend but, hopefully someplace fun!

I got one after reading that Ansel Adams recommended all budding photogs use one exclusively for a while. Tech that primitive forces you to concentrate absolutely on composition and light. They were some of the best pics I ever took. 🙂

I am so low tech as a photographer. I am all about composition. If you don’t have a good composition, it isn’t worth using or buying all the expensive cameras, lenses, software. The first photo I ever took was from a version of the brownie (don’t know what type though) and I still feel it is one of my best and I was only six at the time.

“I am all about composition.” It shows. Yours is the only photo-blog I follow because of your obvious underlying talent. Using tech to compensate for lack of basic skills has become so widespread in so many fields that it’s very refreshing now when one comes across a True Adept. But then, if you started at 6 (!), you were practically bound to be by now 🙂

I wish I could say I started at age six. I’ve only been serious for about the last ten years. Although I have always had a camera close by throughout my life. Thanks so much for your comment. You have touched my heart. I have a saying if I have to work longer than 2 minutes during my post processing … then the photo isn’t good enough to use. But then I don’t like high over-processed photography.
