First post ever.

I thought my first post should be a little bit of an introduction. I'm Erica, I'm 19 and from Dublin. I'm studying photographic media at the moment. I usually shoot on a Fujifilm digital camera but since starting my college course I've had to go back to basics and start using an analogue camera. It was pretty hard at first because I'm so used to the lovely auto settings of a digital camera so I'm a complete novice when it comes to film! I processed my very first film yesterday and it turned out better than I thought it would!
I love music photography, shooting at concerts is my favourite thing to do. In a ideal world I would be a photographer for a music magazine. I love nature photography because I like having the ability to turn something mundane and ordinary into something beautiful and extra-ordinary. I don't have that much experience of shooting people and portraits but I like to give it a go whenever I get the chance.
I usually prefer black and white photography because I feel it's more dramatic and intense. I like to use photoshop to make my photos a little bit more dramatic. I usually only do little touch-ups as I don't like to tamper too much with the image and completely destroy the naturalness of the subject.
