No modifications.

Too dark?

Actually original photo is not this dark. I modified the RAW file to get this more bloody look...criticism and pointers welcome.

Digital Rebel

I got my SLR! It's a Canon Digital Rebel Xti, or 400D. Looking to play around with more controls than a point and shoot. The Xti is the third generation in a line of good digital cameras from Canon. Although Nikon's most recent entry level camera is really good, I decided to stick with the Canon family, because choosing an SLR is more about the lens. Over time I can always switch the body. For now though, I only have two lenses, one is the kit lens that came with the Xti (18-55 mm), and another is an older lens from my Canon film SLR. I'm really looking forward to getting out there and taking some photos!
