Before digital cameras came along, you had to set your "F stop" to the proper setting to have the right exposure for your photos. There was a saying among photojournalists: "F8 and be there."--set your camera to F8, and get to the scene ready to go. Not that much has changed, really.

Welcome to the Observer's Photo Blog

Truth be told, I wanted to be a photojournalist when I grew up.

Quotes

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you aren't close enough."

"The pictures are there, and you just take them."

Cell Phone Shots

As soon as my birthday money is here, I'll buy a new card for the camera. In the meantime, I've been using the cell phone a lot at events I've gone to. A lot of the time, I wished dearly for the more fine resolution and true zoom of the camera, but, hey, some of the photos are at least interesting, and some, not bad.

How much to reveal? There are some nutty people out there! Leave it to say right now that I am well educated, a person of the Christian faith, and never without an opinion.
