Mariacita's photostream

There's nothing quite like reaching my final term at University and realizing... "shit. I should have gone to art school."

I've put down my camera these past few years in favor of getting through school, and now that I'm finishing with a BA in Political Science, I've realized that it's allllll wrong.

But that's okay; now that I will have more time on my hands, I'm looking forward to pursuing photography independently.

There are a few things that I find ultimately satisfying about photography: the way the world looks through my viewfinder, the sound of the shutter clicking, the beauty of a well captured image.

Though I recently purchased and have been shooting a lot with my Nikon D40 digital SLR, my heart belongs to B&W film photography and every once in a while I still like to tote about my Nikon FA SLR. I'm a sucker for a gorgeous B&W photograph--I think there's nothing more beautiful.

I am still learning and would greatly appreciate any feedback I can get on my photographs. Constructive criticism and tips on how to improve my work are more than welcome!!
