Two days ago was my fifth day in Florence, but my first day without some orientation meeting to go to. Of course I headed out to the Uffizi with my roommate and my D40 tucked safely in my purse. But in the end I only took three pictures of a deserted alley with it (I [...]
The feel of black or white

Since I have gotten a digital SLR my favorite things to do has been to take similar pictures of the same thing with the main difference being that one picture is black and white while the other is color. By doing so, the color of the picture can really make the two pictures seem completely unrelated [...]
