Here are another couple that definitely fit in with the criteria this time :) Lily stigma by Soggs, on Flickr Little blue by Soggs, on Flickr

I like your way of thinking! (y)

Been browsing through my Flickr feed for more images to post on here and found these two shots that I quite liked. Flower drops by Soggs, on Flickr Unfortunatley the flower in the foreground of this one spoils the shot a bit. Poppies by Soggs, on Flickr Edit: Ooops realised this is for...

Just a quick shot I took while out and about earlier, nothing special though.

I'm always looking for hints and tips to try and improve my photography, and if I can have a bit if a laugh doing it then all the better (y)

Thanks DayDreamer, much appreciated :) I'll see if I can find some more worth posting up.

Thanks for the tips Dan, I think I just need to get out there and try taking some shots and see how I get on. The handy thing with both my e-pl5 and A580 is that they have articulated screens so you can still shoot from the hip and get the subject pretty well framed without looking too obvious...
