Gig 'Em Ags!! Whoop!!
Howdy,
I know I'm pretty much the only person who posts on this and I'm probably somewhat repetitive, but I'm trying to get better at this as I go along. I just started photographing in the wild and in Texas I come across more hots than I do nonvenomous and I'm getting decent shots, but I know I can do better. Right now I've got two cameras that are both 35mm. One is a Canon Rebel 2000 and the other is an oldie, a Nikon Nikkormat FT. I normally take the Canon out into the field because it has the added benefit of the AF if its needed. I'm using the lens that I got with it which is an EF 28-90mm f 1:4-5.6, and I've been using fuji 400 film. Do ya'll have any suggestions on other types of lenses that I should try to aqcuire (remembering that I'm a poor college kid) and should I be using a film with a faster ISO to get better shots? Any help would be greatly appreciated and here are some samples of what I've been shooting. The last shot of the copperhead was taken with the Nikon using a 135mm lens that I wasn't too fond of. It wasn't a macro lens so close-ups were impossible.
