Who ate my what??

I'm going to try my hand at creating a photography tutorial blog here. I say "try" because 1.) I'm an amateur photographer with lots to learn myself and 2.) I have a tendency to get distracted, so we might get off topic sometimes. =)

I'll share some of the techniques I've picked up along the way and talk about new ones as I learn them. Since we're all learning together here, feel free to post your own ideas and critiques of my techniques and pictures. I want to learn from you, too!

Most of the pictures I'll post will be linked from my web site: http://vincentmo.com

As for the name, I just picked two random digital photography terms (interpolate and jaggies) and stuck them together. A friend noticed that the URL looked like "interpol ate my jaggies." Interpol is an indie rock band, and I like music. Also, almost anything is funnier if it involves eating something inedible. So there you go. Interpol Ate My Jaggies.

cool... can't wait to see your first tutorial post. =) So, what body and lens do you usually use?

I use a Canon 10D and usually a 28-135mm F/3.5-5.6 IS USM with 420EX flash.

Another favorite lens is the 70-200mm F/2.8 IS USM. On occasion, I use a 100mm F/2.8 macro and a 50mm F/1.8. I'm also learning to use my ST-E2 more often for off-camera flash.

Interpol is also an international police agency. Everyone likes crime fighters. =)

I too eagerly await the first tutorial post.
