My niece at Moomba
This is my 2 year old niece Samantha and my 11 year old nephew Sean. I took them both out for a day at the Moomba Festival in Melbourne, Australia. (Moomba an Aboriginal word that means: Let's get together and have fun).

Still an absolute beginner with photography. Just now learning to fiddle with Aperture.

I like the off center composition on the second one......and it is a pretty even exposure as well. These look to be taken around mid-day, when shadows are pretty harsh - so considering the less than optimal shooting circumstances - it looks to me like you did a fine job.
Thanks for sharing these....
Thanks for that! You made me look more closely at the photos to see how I could have done better and that's what I want.
I have a feeling I'm going to get hooked on this photography thingy.

Cool. Using flash doesn't automatically come to mind on a bright sunny day but I'll try that next time when the shadows are too deep in contrast.
Thanks
Hi Katt, I've never been to a Moomba Festival, we used to watch the parade on TV, I don't think they show it any more.
I guess like everything over the years they sort of loose all the hype.
but a fun day out for the family
Did you get to see th Bird Man event? that would be fun to watch.
Thanks for sharing........ Skippy

:skippy Everyone has the right to be stupid, but some people just abuse the privilege :dgrin
Do you know, we went specifically for the Birdman rally as its my and my nephews favourite but we missed it by 20 minutes. I couldn't find what time it was on. Damn.
I remember watching the parade on t.v. as a kid as well, haven't seen it in ages.
Was a good day but really hard to maneouvre that pram amongst thousands. The kids loved it.
Thanks again.
it's definitely hard to think of flash on a sunny day-
I think they're pretty neat shots-
