Thanks everyone for your kind words!

Hey hailey, nothing special about this camera. Cheap plastic eclosure for a cheap plastic camera. I thought it might be fun to test it out. I figured it would like 400 speed film due to the tiny lens and the somewhat low light situations underwater. Seems to work well.

I'll see if I can't find a picture of the camera on the internet to share....

found it!

All my underwater shots were made using this camera and Fuji 400 ASA film.

cool shot. I spent an afternoon in the pool trying to get a good picture of my daughter with a similar camera. But the photos didnt turn out well. Its hard to get a well composed image freehand/by chance. This image is great!

Master photographer.

I love the happy summer feel of this. Just perfect.

This is another shot that proves that it's not about fancy the equipment , it is the photographer's vision that makes or breaks a picture.

[ CK ] says:

your kind compliments make me smile. thanks everyone. :)

I'm reading a Henri Cartier-Bresson's book right now and he's inpsiring much like all of you people do. His words and pictures in the book, "The Minds Eye" is an amazing read. That man was a genius the way he thought and created.

I'll try and keep taking photos with this cheap little camera until it breaks. That could be any day now, so I better keep shooting before that happens!

DUDE!
I knew you were talented, but this is off-the-chart awesome.
i mean really - YOU - are the inspiration for all of us to let it go, and be as free and wild an adventurous as we can allow ourselves to be...

[ CK ] says:

Oh wow a nomination! (I hope I win a years supply of Turtle Wax or something)... Where else can you get this kind of feedback on your photos? I guess that's why I'm hooked on Flickr. I'm afraid I may need the Flickr Patch™ to control my habit though.... ;)

Werner (waking dream) - Thanks amigo for saying that. Your continued feedback and support really helps me keep trying harder... to push myself. There's so many great photographers out there... I sometimes feel like I can't keep up. So I try to follow my heart and listen to what it's telling me. I've never been much for following the rules... I figured... since I know the rules... I can break em' ;)
