First Camera
I recall holding this camera in my hand as a teenager, and wondering what all the buttons meant. It looked like a highly polished piece of equipment, and certainly something beyond my understanding of photography.
Many thanks for visiting my photography website, my name is Jas (aka aPhotoTaker) and I am about as ordinary as they come. I enjoy taking photos, in particular, I love creating a mood that captures a certain essence of life.
I am definitely not Peter McKinnon and my photography and communication skills are still a bit lacking. Instead, I learn by tinkering and hacking away at things in order to figure out how they work. I hope the following journey tells a better story. Please feel free to comment.

One of My First Photos
Our teacher had instructed the students to go out and take photographs incorporating light, composition, and other elements. The neat thing was developing it afterward in the darkroom.
35mm Film and on Auto Setting
Nice camera, still didn't understand all the settings. Like the majority of the people, used it on Auto setting. Still took a lot of photos, but the hobby was getting expensive with each roll of film.
Picture Frame
Loved the way the window became a natural frame for the snow adorned trees outside. Of course it took many weeks to shoot the entire roll of film before I could actually see the results. There was no instant gratification, like today.
