Thanks for the compliments, I take my photos mostly on vacations, places like Greece, Wales or just around my neighborhood. It depends... My main subject is portrait photography, but without the consent of the people I take photographs off. I will not put them up here.
So here is another one out of Wales...

Tips for photography... Lets see... First thing I suppose is to see what subjects get your attention, this could be buildings, nature, people, what ever... Second tip would be.., to look for the look why this subject is special to you.. try to make a picture that show others what makes this a special subject. Third tip would be.. Don't be afraid for failure. practice, practice, practice... follow your gut instinct, if it feels right most of the time it gives great pictures.
And last but not least look at the light...and see it.... Maybe these tips are quit vague, but I hope they will help you to start up. if you have more questions I will try to answer them...

Well...it depends on what kind of photo's your interested in, I think... To be honest I don't think you can learn how to photograph out of books. But Looking to photos you like, and explore what makes you like them can be helpful. Analyzing those photos in how the photographer uses the light, choose his objects and uses the diaphragm can help you to sharpen your own view, I think ... But as I stated before, experiencing it and practice, helps a lot more. And it doesn't have to cost much in this digital age, accept the time you put into it. In my photography I am a self made woman, So I don't know a lot about the technical stuff. so maybe I'm not the right person to ask...
I'm glad you also like my drawings, thanks for your kind words, the are indeed made with charcoal...
Here are two more... an other pic and drawing...

Well, I like to take pics of humans, in every form... I don't post pics of living humans on this site because of their privacy, but in this case I make an exception ...
I took these ones in the Catacombes of a huge city in Europe...

I love the catacombs pictures...they fit your subject matter so perfectly and yet bring such a different dynamic to it all at the same time...very good addition. They're almost too tragic to bare...I love it!
Music is my Religion and Pearl Jam, my Savior! Tattooed Dissident!
