Like the title says, I'm from Texas. Dallas-Fort Worth area to be more exact. I turn 20 on the 23rd and I'm a sophomore at UNT studying photojournalism. I just picked up a 1968 Columbia this past weekend. I'm not sure on the model but it looks similar to a picture of a Rambler I saw on ebay. It's all original from what I can tell, right down to the tires. It needs a pretty thorough overhaul though, as its been sitting in a garage for the better part of the past 40 years. I'll probably be cruising these forums for help a lot as I go through the resto/mod on this bike.

Keep camera close

Anticipate the subjects next move
Shoot front to back [or vice versa] NOT left to right...boring and FLAT..YOU WANT depth

STOP.....stareing, talking, standing there like a deer in the head lights ......SHOOT!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Thats awesome RatRod, site admins a UNT alumni. That should start off this young Jedi on your good side. 8)

I appreciate those tips outsider. I started off wanting to be a photography major but although I love the art aspect of photography, I decided I'd rather deliver information and awareness to people through this medium. I'm looking forward to the next few years once I get into the meat of the major.
