Thinking of beginning something different?
Tired of the same old headshot?
Want something to up one of the neighbors?
And need something memorable?

Perhaps it is time to make your image an iconic experience and choose a Hitchcock.  In honor of our not quite namesake Hitchcock Photographic is giving tribute to a great in film and cinematography by offering realistic black and white images without all of the hassle and expense.

The following images were photographed with an old (3 year old) Nikon Coolpix Camera.  It is possible for quality images to come out of a point and shoot camera.  After all, for this application (Landscapes and Wildlife) it is not always necessary to use your D-SLR.

If you have more examples you would like to share or get advice about, please share a link or comments you would like.
