Nice shot, but I think it would have looked better if all the cars were coloured. The car beside it especially looks out of place.

Some snaps with my first DSLR. Canon 1000d, arrived yesterday.
Shot with 50mm 1.8 F lens.

@Straddlefor6,

Lovely shots there the DOF on the 50 1.8 is excellent and having a nice subject helps too....Except for the odd tourney now I've all but given up the pokha's got a good result in an ipoker million a couple of months ago and took the plung and bought myself a DSLR too. BOL with the photography

Beautiful! bit more contrast (I love contrast!) and it'd be even better maybe? The glare is a wee it distracting but the shot is AMAZING! I love it!

+1 if you are talking about EAS shot of his daughter. The kite shot is not half bad either.

I am...I tried to quote it without the pic but failed. The tones/colours...it just all works well together and that poignant moment of interest in the camera is caught perfectly.

I'm sorry, I just don't see what this image is about. Nothing is in focus and its flat. It's got some repetition with light/shadows but I think its executed badly.

My first picture on Boards Photography. I bought my first DSLR a few weeks ago and have been messing around with it almost everyday (results are varied to say the least) pretty random but heres one I like.

I love the shot hb but did you ever even think of cropping it down a fraction?

When I say down - I mean removing some of the 'sky'.

Yeah, I did. I wasn't too sure about it so I asked the OH and he liked it how it was so I ended up with that version. I kind of like all the sky, but maybe it is a little much.

Another from earlier today;

I was out in the Pheonix Park on Saturday, when I
discovered this young lady doing Slalom skating.
She demonstrated some great skill on the skates.



Some more over on my pixie

Pfft. You just wanted to perve at her bottom, admit it! :pac:

Came across this guy today while out in the garden. Probably not everyones cup of tea.

Anyway, It's a Backswimmer, Notonectidae notonecta sp. These are one of those surface swimmers with long legs that you'd often see on very still water. It's was probably looking for a pond when I found it on a glass surface.

Just saw this while I was back in Dublin about to head back to the West. I'm patiently waiting for my first DSLR...so fingers crossed it adds something else. I've only been interested in photos for a few months, and only really started taking 'thoughtful' (as in I think it through - not me trying to be deep!!) photos.

There's a good few spots near Antwerp (and in the town): Leuven, Mechelen, The beach in Antwerp, the cathedral, or even go down to BXL.

Hi Pete

I wasn't really expecting people to like it, I can't figure out why I like it but I really do for some reason. I'm sure it is probably technically all over the place like you said, I'm still figuring things out. Appreciate the feedback though.

No tripod. Any of these 360º shots I do I've never bothered with a tripod.
