    Re: Photographyreview: The People

    Name:
    adina

    Meaning of handle (if it's not obvious):
    um....that's me

    Dorky PR club I belong to (if any):
    Reigning self-portraitist....and I'd hardly call that dorky!!

    Location:
    southeastern WI

    Born:
    Illinios

    Other places I've lived:
    various parts of WI

    Like to Retire:
    no place in particular, it's a long way off

    Ethnicity:
    bit of this, bit of that

    Marriage/Family:
    yup and yup

    Languages I speak:
    English

    Education:
    really, is anyone ever done learning?

    Occupation:
    Whatever needs to be done.....

    Religious affiliation (if any): firm believer in the "what goes around comes around" theory.

    Political affiliation (if any): I"m with the "dress 'em up like clowns" plan..... I guess fairly liberal, all things considered.

    Other hobbies: hmmm...a little bit of this and that. Right now, most of our spare time goes toward things we can do as a family.

    How long I have been a photographer:
    Depends, do you mean how long have I had a camera? Or how long I've gotten halfway decent results?

    First "real" camera:
    rebel 2k

    How I found Photographyreview.com:
    yahoo search, I think

    Date I joined PR (sometimes people's listed join date is innacurate):
    Joined in 2001, just had my second baby.

    Favorite forum:
    Viewfinder

    Photogatherings I have attended:
    Chicago twice

    Favorite subjects:
    children...mine or someone else's....doesn't really matter.

    Current Gear:
    20d
    10d
    rebel 2k

    50 mm f/1.8 (which is what I use 90% of the time)
    70-200 mm f/4
    28-80mm f/3.5-5.6

    Camera I use the most:
    20d

    Why I prefer film or digital:
    There is nowhere near me that develops, so digital it is. Plus I think that I've gotten much better since I went digital, not afraid to shoot more, and I can see what works and what doesn't right away. But when I have more time and space, I'm going to try processing my own b&w.

    What I like about Photographyreview.com:
    Variety of interest/ages/stages/goals. Everyone isn't trying to do the same thing. And everyone (okay, those I've met) have been just as nice in person as they are online.

    What I am trying to accomplish with my photography:
    When everyone else whips out the photos of thier kids, I want mine to be the best It helps of course, that my kids are so good looking...
    Seriously, time goes by so quickly. When I am old, I want to be able to look back at photos I've taken over the years, and remember the moment, not the outfit. And I'd like the girls to be able to do the same.

    Thanks Adina! I was just about to reply to your photos when I saw this.

    I really like the first 2. The first being my favorite, it's a classic. I can really feel the love and friendship between sisters in the second one. Nice work!

    Languages I speak:
    English, understand but can't really speak Spanish, know Latin and Italian.

    Education:
    Currently working towards my B.A... probably in Political Science. May be going for a second in History or Public Policy...or just go for both of the latter and dump polisci. I'm just a freshman.

    Occupation:
    Staff Photographer, The Independent Florida Alligator; Student, University of Florida

    Religious affiliation : Jewish, sorta.

    October 2004

    Favorite forum:
    Nikon Camera Equipment / Digital SLRs.

    Photogatherings I have attended:
    None yet...

    Favorite subjects:
    News Photojournalism/Sports. And some other stuff.

    Current Gear:
    35mm:
    Nikon F6
    Nikon F2

    Digital:
    Nikon D3
    Nikon D300+MB-D10
    Nikon D200
    Nikon D1 (UV/IR converted)

    Lenses and Accessories:
    Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G AF-S ED-IF N

    Nikon TC-14E II
    Nikon SB-800

    Camera I use the most:
    D3

    Why I prefer film or digital:
    I love my F6, shooting film slows me down and makes me think. I love the feeling of not having that instant gratification or that feeling that I can always reshoot.
    But I love my DSLRs for their feature set, build, and stunning image quality. the D3 is probably the best camera yet made, and I feel very lucky to shoot it.

    What I like about Photographyreview.com:
    Great people, great features, a very nice site overall. Some places just don't have the original content that we do, others lack the community and friendly people. I love it!

    What I am trying to accomplish with my photography:
    I don't know anymore. I thought I was in it to have some fun and maybe get to shoot some sports... just fun shots. Now I'm trying to capture moments, provide interesting views, and help my paper continue to gain in quality and stature. I want to make people take a second look.

    A few of my favorite recent images:

    One from the Newberry Hospice Rodeo last month...


    Two from this month's Olustee Civil War Reenactment...



    One from the Miss UF pageant...


    And lastly, one of me taken at the UF women's lacrosse game this Saturday. My friend Brant was shooting my D3 and 70-200 while I shot the D300 and 200 f/2 and TC for maximum reach. I'm currently....between 400mm's
    Aforementioned 200 f/2 and D300 are pictured.

    Re: Photographyreview: The People

    Nice to get a little bio on you Harry. I started my photography career as a staff photographer for my college yearbook nearly 40 years ago. Those years were some of the most enjoyable of my life. I learned more about photography than at any other time and had an opportunity to shoot a very wide variety of subjects. (Read lots of women to photograph that were eager to pose and thought the camera around my neck was really cool.) Enjoy this time in your ife and take full advantage of what life and opportunity has to offer you.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: Photographyreview: The People

    Harrison, great shots, I'd love to be able to capture moments like you've shown. In particular I like the Rodeo shot, what lens did you use? and the first shot of the civil war reenactment, with the sword glistening at the bottom.

    Great stuff.

    :thumbsup: Shootme...

    Please don't edit and re-post or use my images (not that you'd want to anyway...). without my written permission. Thank you
