More old school images

I've been digitizing a great deal of my early work, so I thought I would post three of the more interesting ones. This is from my first-ever film class 20+ years ago that I took with my dad at Country Camera in East Stroudsburg. I don't know the exact date, but I'm guessing 1984-1985.

I have no idea on the lens, film or exposure used to capture these, but they were taken on my Canon T70.

I took this on Main Street in Stroudsburg, Pa. - it's (obviously) a Saloon sign, but I don't even remember the place the sign called attention to, probably because I was much too young to enter a bar at the time. The sign was one of the more prominent on Main Street in the 1980s. This effect was intentional, and as I recall, I burned a great deal of film taking many different shots, and this one was the best. This was one of the first lessons I learned in my first photo class - improvisation. If there's not enough light to get a decent picture, and if you don't have a tripod, try something different. It's one of the things I love about photography - there's always something you can do.

I had to turn in a framing shot for my film class, and this is the one I came up with - a picture of my grandparent's Yorkshire Terrier, Chloë.

We were just having fun taking drag-shutter shots from a tripod, and I took this one of my brother Matt running in front of my grandmother's house in East Stroudsburg, Pa.
