I've decided I'm going to try something I've read about on few photography websites: Black and White photos only, fixed focal length (50mm), no editing (except an occasional crop). Let's see what happens.

All constructive criticism is welcome - I do want to get better at this.

Thanks for taking the time to view my pictures and commenting.

Some quotes related to photography that have caught my attention for one reason or another:

Everything has it's beauty, but not everyone sees it. -Confucius

The hardest thing about being a photographer is, you have to take pictures. -Doug Bartlow

Actually, I'm not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I'm not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren't cooks. ~Henri Cartier-Bresson

Buying a Nikon doesn't make you a photographer. It makes you a Nikon owner. ~Author Unknown

One photo out of focus is a mistake, ten photos out of focus are an experimentation, one hundred photos out of focus are a style. ~Author Unknown
**** Could it be that I'm a trend-setter?!... nah. :)
