    What camera really got you going with photography?

    Nikon F2 w/ 43-86 zoom in the early '80s.

I became a Nikon shooter ever since.

    Advice on composition

    A few rustic photos with my 180mm

    I've been in a photo slump, so I pull out my 30 yr old 180mm EDIF lens to try to get inspired. I captured these across the field behind our townhome. Nothing special but I needed to get shooting...though I still feel like stepping away for a while. decaying siding eave hoop and siding...

    Advice on composition

    What about playing with the crop while gently correcting perspective to feature the vehicle. If you like your perspective, I'd correct the tilt counterclockwise a few degrees, as it seems like it's leaning to the right. Wide angle lenses can be tricky up close with scenes like this one, unless...
