Hello out there! I'm a photography student at the present time trying to get my name out to people and start my own photography business out of my home. I go by the name shutterbug 305 and originally from the Texas panhandle area. I hope to learn from others here to get the most out of my college training in photography. I am in my early 50's and get plenty of photo ops having a 1 yr old grandbaby around to photograph, which recently landed me a $100 scholarship and the 2nd place in the college's recent photography department 's art show in the catagory of people. A real 1st for me! I look forward to meeting others here and making a few friends while learning more about the exciting world of digital photography. Thanks for the opportunity to do so.-----Shutterbug305-----

North Central Iowa is where I come from Holdrens. :D
That part of Iowa is really beautiful(Quad cities based on some pics I've seen of it.) I personally haven't been there, but have been around the Cedar Rapids area though. Had some stuff to do out that way and family that used to live there for a while.(Cedar Rapids that is).Thanks for the welcome. I don't know how much of my photos you can see from my avatar photo here, but I took this shot of myself to record my entries and the ribbons I won for them in my county fair here. It was my 1st year ever to try something like this in a county fair and I entered 4 photos and took 3 second place and 1 third place ribbons my 1st time out of the chute!I was floored! I sort of forgot to record the ones I entered the following year yet though.I might still do that just because. I plan on entering a couple others this coming summer in the county fair too and see what they think of some of my black and white.
