Featured My Mate Took Some Pictures Of Me...

Why is nobody mentioning the involuntary mustache that sneaked onto Greg‘s face in the last picture...!?

If I had posted the pic, I‘m damn sure there would have been remarks on a certain A. H. from humorless country down south...

I guess, @Havit did not check this thread yet...



BTW: I like the pic with the blurred background best

Hey Greg, no bad feelings: see, I already got my fill...

Photography is a great hobby but takes time to perfect it....I should know, Ive done it for 30 years & being critical of my own photos still delete probably 80% of what I take. Digital photography allows this.
Things I have learnt is that...
1/ You can have a very expensive camera, but composition is everything. It isnt necessarily what the camera takes but what the eye see`s. Before clicking the shutter, think about what will actually be in the finished picture, yes cropping can do away with a lot of distracting objects, but isnt it better to get it mostly right first time???
2/ Don`t get hooked up in thinking that mega pixels will produce fantastic pictures, for most people who are going to print off 6x4 pictures do you really need to have 20 million pixels? Sensor size/type is more relevant when it comes to quality.
3/ Spend your money on the lenses instead of the body. It`s no good having a £1500 camera body then trying to get good results using a £50 lens? Quality photos are as much about the lens used in relation to the body fitted to it.
4/ Get a good book that is dedicated to that camera. Manuals that come with the camera are only to get you started really & cant possibly show you everything your new camera can do. Move off of the "auto" setting & experiment with other modes starting with aperature priority (AP) & shutter priority (SP)
5/ Go on a photography course. I have done 3 now including a macro photography course at a Zoo that really improved my skills no end.
This certainly isnt a criticism, but will help those who want to take fine pictures, & whats more, my advice is free so if it`s wrong then you can`t sue me Ha Ha
