I absolutely love photography that was created by people on the spectrum.

If you have anything online that you have produced, would you please list a link here or send me a PM.

You could also put up your photographs as a reply in this thread.

I have always had a special interest in art that is produced by ordinary people.

Most people are over critical of their own work. Some people like me just like stuff made by people on the spectrum.

Photography is one of the interests I tend to rotate through. I've got a Minolta XG-M that's my favorite, a Pentax K-1000 that's not that great (but I've taken some great pictures with it) and a Petri 7s that's kind of different. I also have a Sony cybershot point-and-shoot that has a marvellous macro function.

I like it, can't afford to do it with special cameras or anything like that but I use my tablet to take pictures. Here are two of my fav shots that I have taken.

What's the difference? I;ve only noticed more attention to detail and better subjects! :roll:

Overall I tend to like artistic photography of landscapes and cool scenery and such. Pictures of people are so boring...

I love taking photographs, and I'm quite good at composition. However, I don't yet know all the technical stuff.
