I am just in AWE of your piks... just starting out myself, learning how to use my camera (Rebel Xs)...
any tips on getting that nice B&W you have? What's your process? All the B&W I end up with are dark, blacks are crushed, too dark... I just love the light look yours have. Care to share some tips?
And what's your top 2 favorite lenses? I'm in the market for a new one! (I have the kit 18-55 and 50/1.8. (I shoot canon, too)
Thanks! (and again, sorry about your loss.... you relax, and if you want, you can answer me later, I didn't mean to pounce on ya!)

Re: **Cortney**
all i have to say is thank you for the camera talk! anything to keep my mind at ease.
I use my nifty fifty most of the time aka 50mm 1.8 . I really want a 50mm 1.4 because it is COMPLETELY diff than the 1.8 . I use Photoshop cs3 to edit my photos. Contrast, curves, and levels are your best friend in B&W. I also add some red and yellow to my b&W to make them not to blue looking.
Feel free to email me at cortney@cortneybphotography.com for any help etc
I know most of learning PS is just fooling around with it, but do you have a suggestion on where to learn more? I use photoscape right now, and know the basics of PS, but it's overwelming to get past the crop feature ;-)
I also *heart* the 1.4 ... I think I'm going to rent one next month on vacation!
So if you really want the distraction.. take your sig pik (adorable!~) and tell me in plain english what you did to it!
THANKS!!!
