seeking, why don't you start shooting again with an old film slr, or maybe buy a cheap one? You could shoot with that for a while and make sure that you really want to invest time and money in photography, and then move on to the dslr and what not.
I've heard of it..those screen captures look really cool. I really need to get out to the country side and do some good old fashion shooting on film. Maybe get some awesome cow shots like decaying sketches.
Don't you live in Illinois? For some reason I feel like you do...and if that's true then that shit is mad easy. In michigan it's kindof a bitch, but still easy.
