Where I'm coming from...

I've struggled with cheap cameras for years but I try and make up for it with stubbornness.:D

I'm trying to learn but I thought I'd post a few of my older pics to show where I'm coming from and hopefully I might get a few suggestions on where to go.

When you don't have a lens or more than a few megapixels you have to get real close.

Is it cheating shooting at the feeder BTW?

Here is one from today. Any suggestions on how to get this shot? One subject is under exposed and the other over exposed if only slightly.

    Thank you, I'm using a Cannon t1i.

    Excuse my ignorance, pp?

    I'm new to this, I probably should be using equipment made by Fisher Price..

    your doing fine, just keep shooting

    pp = post processing, using software to enhance your photos

    good luck, and have fun

    These look OK. If you post soem recent pics we would have a better idea of where you are and maybe you wanna let us know where you want to get to with your photography.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    The last couple were from last week.

    Where I want to go?:ivar

    I'm like a kid in a candy store. I see so many cool pics here I want to go off in 100 differant directions. I'd like to be well rounded. At least how to get the shot. So much here is well above my experiances.bowdown.gif
