    Number two for me, also. I really like the light and the mood it produces.

    The second shot was a pure accident, by not checking the shutter settings. The light happens to be coming from a computer monitor.

    #2 is the best hands down.........about learning what does and does not work........I am self taught amd I ;looked thru library's hi and low for boks on my passion (concert photos).....none to be found.....so I decided to shoot one with my portrait film......fuji 50....that stuff could make a portrait POP like nothng else.....so I take 20 ea 36 exp rolls and shoot my tail off....then I run into 2 true pros 1 shooting for Magnum and the Other for Black Star.....they about filled their pants when they found me shooting such slow film.....their were carrying 1600 b/w......both were impressed with the contact sheets I sentthem butthey were jsutlowly photogs and had no power to enrich my bank account with a job offer (30 yrs ago).........I found out that night that I was breaking all kinds of rules of normal photography, wrong film, long zoom lens etc etc...........
