I love peacocks! Their so beautiful, although they sound awful. I used to chase on around when I was kid to get the feathers. Never got one :/ But thats a neat photo, I like how its all blurry in the background. Im guessing you didnt have an disposable camera

I have a bundle of peacock feathers, he drops them everywhere.
The blurry background is on purpose, it's called depth of field and I do it on purpose to draw attention strait to teh subject. You need a manual SLR camera to do it (borrowed it from school cause I'm poor -.- ) and i love using those things XD

I wish I had a camera with those. I really like pictures with blurry back grounds, and ive always wanted to to that. Those cameras are soooo expensive though!

I know! I've been stalking ebay for awhile trying to find the model my photo teacher lends to me, no luck but either way it's to damn expensive >.>. I've debated just getting a manual digital camera someday though, bit more expensive but worth it I guess. You really can't match darkroom printing with traditional film compared to CVS or something. Unless I get a darkroom someday I'll probaly go that way (just for the color too). If you ever get your hands on a manual camera tell me and I'll try to explain to you how to get the blurry backgrounds! ^^
P.S: There are ways to take normal photos and edit them in photoshop to get that look, not as good but nonetheless, the look.

I once used a manuel camera in middle school when I took the photography class. We didnt get to use it much though. And the day I get my hands on one will be the day I won the lottery Haha, no really. I could never afford one and i would feel bad if made my parents buy me one. I think the digital one might be better since you dont really need an dark room, just an computer and a printer, and with some I dont think you even need an computer, just an printer that u attach the memor card to. But yeah, I hope one day I can buy myself one, because im tired of using disposable cameras.

They aren't THAT expensive XD. A good qaulity one can be as low (rofl) as $200, though most of them tend to go around $350-$500+. And I would never use those strait from camera to printer things, I for one am very nit picky on how the photos come out. I much rather sit there and make it perfect in photoshop. Which is another reason I enjoy the dark room, full control on how it comes out if you know what your doing ^^

Oh yeah, 200 bucks is nothing *is being sarcastic* Ive never had 200 bucks in my life. So yeah, I could never afford those cameras. But then again, maybe one day when im older I might, but thatll be a while from now. unfortunately.

The only time I've had 200 in cash was my recent birthday, where my big family learned I like cash better then gifts
And I don't either of us will have money for a long time, especially if you plan to go to college XD
