Where is that? :thinking:

Thanks for all the positive comments folks :thumbs: Nice to think I'm doing something right. Jean - all pics straight out of the camera. No idea about processing yet :thinking: The white bit in No.3 is the arm of the sofa - wasn't really keeping an eye out for that but I will now.

Hi Folks, finally got round to getting the camera out of the bag and taking some pics of my new arrival. She's now 2 weeks old!! Still a novice so if anyone can share any helpful tips or tell me where I'm going wrong it would be appreciated. Everyone tells me how quickly they change so I better...

Thanks for the replies. When you say they need a bit more light are you talking about adding some from flash?:thinking: There was only one large window in the room. Or, should I have dialled in a bit more exposure balance or upped the iso perhaps?

Hi Everyone, This is my first post with my Nifty-Fifty and would welcome all your comments please. I really haven't used the camera enough since getting it and am determined to do more this year. Anyway, here are some shots I took of my nephews. I struggled to get good sharp images and also...

I've kept a close eye on the guru's thread to be honest ;) I was pleased with this as a starting point though but I'm sure there'll be plenty of tweaking done over the next few weeks. Will look to get off camera flash soon. Any tips on the processing questions? Thanks.

So this is the 1st "collision" i've managed to capture. Using a Canon 40D, kit lens and on-board flash only. The only thing I've done is crop the image. Could do with a little rotation I think and a bit of sharpening. Could anyone point me in the right direction to do this please. I've got...

Thanks for the comments:D. I also prefer the first pic. This was taken after pic 2 to be honest. Could anyone give a few tips on how to sharpen and rotate the image? I've got CS4 but really have no clue yet how to utilise it:shrug:. Thanks again in advance.

Hi All, Finally decided to pluck up the courage to post pics so please go easy. :love: I've been trying to get some collisions but only achieved an average one so far (pic1) but its early days. I also have no idea how to crop and sharpen these. I've made an attempt at sharpening no 2 but I...

Very clear guide and extremely helpful. Can't wait to give it a bash :bonk:

Absolutely love these!! Waiting to get an external flash and I'll be having a crack. Thanks for the pointers so far!

Just ordered one of these with the free 3-way panning head. Probably move to a ball head in the future. Looking forward to my first tripod!! :thumbs:

I'm think about selling my Canon kit lens too 18-55 EFS. How much did you get for it Lawrence??
