I took these at lunch the other day with my newly-acquired Nikon FE. Yay, it works!

These trees grow along the bay on either side of the causeway. I've been looking at them for months, wanting to study them with my camera. The roots, the trunks, the bark, the almost silky pine needles - very textural, as they say in art school.

Thanks to the miracle of Photoshop, I can make this black and white from color film. What will they think of next? Not sure which I prefer of this shot.

It was exciting to go out and shoot a whole roll of film, not worrying about the cost or what all the people thought about the crazy woman taking pictures on the side of the bridge. The drawback was that I wanted to drive home instead of back to the office.

Addendum: Here's another one. I messed with the color a wee bit in Photoshop.
