Coming home again...
Like finding a lost memory...
I'm finding my photography again...

Ode

Sepia

See these places, these faces I've known
Avenues and streets and dusty roads
The boulevard of my afternoons
Faded into a soft photograph
Tinted a tinge of melancholy
And maps and stones and crumbling ruins
But I remember Halloween ghosts
Birthdays and school days and sunny days
Friends and smiles and tears and laughter
Parks and picnics, school bells and church bells
Candles and city lights and porch lights
In the twilight of autumn sunset
Red and gold leaves fallen to the ground
From a tree with words carved long ago -
We were here....

No problems whatsoever, I have the Canon EOS Digital Rebel. I use three different lenses although I usually wind up taking most of my pics with the kit lens (hehe). I use two filters, a UV and a polarizer. And then there is always the lovely PS2. Let me know if you ever have any questions! I learned so much here on DA from other artists that I'm happy to pass on my own limited knowledge!

If you don't mind me asking which digital rebel do you have?
I have the very first generation and my shots come out nothing like yours. Just asking because I live in Vegas and your shots are great.

I love your Vegas photos... living in Vegas, many times I see it as a distraction. Photos and work like yours bring me back to the beauty that is here.
