I have been interested in photography a long time. Went through several film cameras, now on my 2nd digital. I have an Olympus OM1. Like it for the size and reasonable cost.
I classify myself as an advanced amateur. I can talk about anything, doing it is another matter. I enjoy taking pictures of unusual things and like to exercise perspective. I particularly like sunsets, just takes patience.
As an introduction, attached is a pic I took this week for our camera club scavenger hunt. The topic is vegetable. I titled this "A vegetable among fruits".
Took it with a pinhole. I find the pinhole lens provides a unique view on some subjects. High tech camera with a no tech lens :)
The contest has about 12 subjects with special recognition for multiple subjects in a single shot. The other subjects are "any shadow" and "circle". One shot, 3 down.
Interesting shot. Welcome to the forum.

Welcome. Interesting image.
Welcome to the forum. Why would you post such a picture as your first post? Just asking. I believe you have something much better according to your intro.

I have lots of other images, one hanging in a local restaurant, others that have been accepted in contests. This just happened to be one of the most recent pics I took. I like to tryout the unusual. I don't judge photos by the ability to stick to
what others think are "rules". I like the mood of the pinhole. It does not work for many photos, I just thought it worked for this one.
I watched some pros on an on line photo show. Their challenge was to photograph a fencer. It was a drop dead easy shot, lay on the floor and shoot upwards. I was surprised no one did that. The one that was judged to have won, shot breaking
the rules with the subject outside the backdrop.
Long answer :)
