Hi again,
I had so much fun, and got so much encouragment with the first image that I've put up a few more. As you can tell, I love, love, love photography! I'm not a pro or anything, but my father-in-law was and he would inspire me a lot, and encouraged my passion.
Photoshop helps me "doctor" the scans ... and filters add very beautiful touches!
I attended this wedding with a 35mm N90 Nikon film camera. I had no flash to use and my father-in-law suggested that I use black & white film with an ISO (ASA) of 3200
!! I was shocked that film went up that high. I was used to the regualar 400
. So, I took his suggestion and shot up quite a roll or two.
Tech talk: Illford film. I kept the camera at around 2.8 to 5.6 F-stop, depending on what my shutter speed read. Because I was hand-holding the camera I needed the shutter speed to stay above 30/sec to avoid motion/blur. Always use a tri-pod for anything lower than 30/sec , or brace yourself really really good !! The church had low light. I had the film processed at a professional lab to get the best original pictures possible for scanning at home (4x6 images). Expensive but worth it!
I hope you enjoy...
