OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THOSE ARE TERABLY GOOD LOL

actually i like them all btu the one thing i see that you really need to work on is composition on them.

Also the flowers try them with a shorter lens and get CLOSER TO THEM. then use your f-stop and braket them so that you get a blured background and lower your depth of feild down some. this will turn in to a REALLY NICE SHOT.
Also remeber if you can do thsi with out shadow but still get them to glow in the sun they are really nice also.

the other things you could look in to are a polarriser filter and this will help make the colors Real vivid and brite. but will also increas your saturation in the colors.


NOW REMEBER
I do this stuff as a hobby now but i am a pro. Photog. So i dont mean to bust your cahonas but i dont belive in giving you a bunch of Shiza that is just there to make you feel good and not help you learn or get things better.

Im not saying i dont like them becuse i actually do but this is what i saw .

Since I don't have a macro lense, I use my 300mm. It gets "closer" than my 28 or 90, just have to focus from much farther away. I agree with Mickey on the polarizer, it'll make your blue sky bluer. And if you take pics of water, you can tone down the glare.


What kind of camera are you using Chris?
I think my favorite is the leaf, good color.

Does the Easy Share have interchangeable lenses?

I had a film SLR forever, Canon T60,loved it. It pretty much croaked a few years ago, then I got a film Canon Rebel SLR, never wastoo impressed with it. I finally decided to go digital (I was die-hard film) and WOW!. Got the 10.1mp Canon xti and absolutely LOVE it. Just wish I could afford a good FAST telephoto for it, but that costs about as much as my car.

Hey, Mickey, you wouldn't happen to have a decent EF mount 800mm or so just laying around in the way, would ya?

yeah it has the ability to change up but im sure those are pretty frieken expensive. and unless i plan to do this for a living i dont wanna spend a ton of cash on accessories. for now its just a hobby and something i enjoy doing
