This person let me borrow one of her cameras...it's really nice, but I have NO clue how to use it. I've never used a camera this complicated before.......and I'm sure film cameras aren't that complicated, but I know digitals aren't!! Anyway..here is a pic of the camera:

It's a pentax...something or other o_O lol....anyway. Some of my pics turned out ok, but a lot didn't..I have a lot to work on. I'm going to take my pics in to show her and hopefully she can show me how to improve.

Here is the gallery if you want to look at them all...I'll only post a few

The camera has manual adjustments for shutter speed so you can leave it open longer and get weird pics like this..(also painting with light which I haven't done yet, but I'll show you when I do)

Great photos :D. I get alot of photos like the one of Josie with my digital ;). Also i am thnking about getting myself another film camera again soon, before my father shot through he had the best camera ever (Film) it was a Nikon and was pretty old but it took awesome pics, BUT he smashed it to pieces :( .
