Not the best image I've taken! I was only out for a stroll on the beach, no time to adjust settings - just a fluke capture and one I'm unlikely to see again any time soon!

Just love this of my little Tzu - not the best shot in the world but really shows her character

I'll upload some tomorrow and maybe some opinions will help me to decide what to do :shrug:

Not being the most confident person, and being relatively new to photography, I've been left feeling totally disheartened after speaking to an artist at Crufts. All I wanted was a coloured pencil sketch of one of my dogs and showed him which one (he was insistent that it be one taken in...

Sarah-Jo someone told me to get this book when I first started - it helped me get to grips with things a little better - Understanding Exposure - Bryan Peterson After a year I'm only at the 2/100 stage and I read and practice A LOT :eek: but stick with it and you'll find it's soooo worth it :)

I've already got the 35mm f1.8 plus a Tamron 17-50 f2.8 The only other lens I'd like is the 105mm f2.8 purely for fun as I'm interested in macro although I mainly do pet portraits

I have funds for a new lens :clap: Hubby is buying me a Nikon AF-S 80-200 2.8 but now I'm undecided between a Nikon 50mm 1.4G and a Nikon 85mm 1.8G - would love the Nikon 85mm 1.4 but funds don't run into those figures! Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Ooops lol thanks for spotting my mistake :) Every time I try and get close to the glass it scares him away but I'm going to persevere and hopefully he'll get used to seeing me there :D

Ok so I haven't got a decent zoom lens and this little chappie is extremely shy - it's taken me 3 weeks to get a shot and through the window at that Still... extremely happy to have caught him Sorry, I'm not too good at PS, could have improved it no doubt

I'm trying to get some decent shots of my dogs against a black background but although I've Googled away and tried to follow said found instructions the best I'm getting is a grey background. Any help/advice much appreciated as my little pack are getting fed up with me :eek:

The first one for me for sure Your Mum has nothing to worry about, she looks great and you've done them both proud

I've currently got a Nikon 35mm f/1.8 and a Tamron 17-50mm SP Di II f/2.8 lens I was wondering if it was really worth investing in a Nikon 50mm f/1.4 as I seem to take most pics on my Tamron around the f/4 mark. I really want either the Nikon 80-200 f/2.8 AF-D or the 70-200mm f/2.8 (more...

Lol yes Allan that was my intention - however what my intention is at the time and what comes out are usually 2 different things! I'm happy with how this turned out actually for once :)
