    Finally getting some use out of my camera....

    Thank you for your input, I really do appreciate it. I have to admit, it feels a little too much like I've 'Instagram'd' it.

    I need to start somewhere, so I'll give this a look as soon as the football has finished. :) It's okay, I've got a Retina MacBook Pro.

    Finally getting some use out of my camera....

    I took a few this morning and had a quick play with some presets in Lightroom, this is what I achieved. IMG_1556 by Liam McGlynn, on Flickr IMG_1554 by Liam McGlynn, on Flickr IMG_1551 by Liam McGlynn, on Flickr IMG_1549 by Liam McGlynn, on Flickr IMG_1543 by Liam McGlynn, on Flickr

    I've got Lightroom 4, I'm just not really sure how to use it. If course I don't mind, that does look very nice. :)

    That's what I'll be doing. I study a lot of different exif data too, just to get a rough idea of the settings people use. Although, it's not quite that simple when people change so much in PP.

    I appreciate all of your comments. Thank you! If I can't take criticism from people that know what they're talking about, I may as well just give up. I'll be honest, I struggle with composition. I'm not good with working out where light is perfect etc.

    Finally getting some use out of my camera....

    With some gentle persuasion, I finally took my camera out yesterday. I'm very very new to photography still, I basically just put it in AV mode and snap away. These are a few I took yesterday and some I took this morning. I'm quite ignorant when it comes to PP, so most of the photos are just...

    OMG New iPad with WiFi 64GB - White

    That's the one, although, mine is the previous model. I put a One Plan sim in mine, which has unlimited data. They told me it doesn't work, but I can assure you mines still going strong. Can't see any reason for it to have stopped. They do the One Plan on a 30 day rolling contract now too, so if...

    OMG New iPad with WiFi 64GB - White

    Dave, I also have a Three MiFi which I use. It's a battery powered dongle that allows devices to connect to it via wifi. It's brilliant, but the battery life isn't amazing. Don't get me wrong it'll last a few hours, it won't let you geocache though. I know nothing about cameras, but a hell of a...

    OMG New iPad with WiFi 64GB - White

    You can buy Bluetooth GPS and connect the two. Personally, I'd swap it for the '4G' model, buy the camera connection kit, jailbreak it. You can use iFile to save stuff to SD cards. Far, far cheaper too.

    Photographing surfers - Advice please.

    Running towards the see is a cracking idea. How would I go about getting silhouettes at sunset? I'd like on of the three of them. Thanks Dave, you're a star. :)

    Photographing surfers - Advice please.

    I'd like your advice on photographing Surfers. Me and 3 friends are off to Newquay for the weekend and they all surf. As I don't, I thought it'd be the perfect opportunity to practice. I don't have a huge kit, so I'd need to make use of what I have, which is : EOS 1100D 18-55mm Kit...
