186th PHS Philadelphia Flower Show 2015

These were taken at the 186th PHS Philadelphia Flower Show on Sunday March 8th, 2015. I went to the flower show not knowing what to expect and boy do I know what not to do next year. Never go on the weekend especially when its the last day of the show. There was some serious crowds there. Other then that and getting shoved all around it was a nice day.
These shots were all taken with my Nikon D800 and my new lens Nikon 24-70mm. So far I like how the lens handles. Though I should have tried it out more before going there. It preformed fine, but I still wasn't use to it.

Film Camera Project

So I have my dads old Canon AE-1, 35mm film camera. He is not using it anymore due to he has a digital SLR. So I went out and tracked down a battery (found it at radio shack) and some Kodak 400 color film (found at CVS). The only problem with the film is it expires January 1, 2015 so I have to take 72 photos (3 rolls x25) before the end of the year. I'm sure I can do that lol. The other problem with film is getting it processed. So I found a place that is pretty close to me that seems to still do it Allens Camera in Levittown, PA from listening to Raw Talk on froknowsphoto.com.

So for only $30 I was able to get this camera working. Now to see what I can do with it. Once I take all the shots I'll get them developed and post them here.
