Post all of your photos that you have taken!

I just got a new digital camera (HP Photosmart 733 3.2MP) and I really want to get into photography. I took the camera out this morning and decided to take a couple of "good" shots. Comments and critique please.

The only thing I did to these photos was to resize them from 2048x1536 to 800x600 except for the last image which I used the clone stamp tool to get rid of a white support for the tree..

Please enjoy.

A failed water compo attempt.

I still like it though.

CDailey · Aug 1, 2004

Cool picture. 👍

kikkoman · Aug 1, 2004

Here are a few more photographs Ive taken.

Tried to reach the artistic approach.

Experimented with zoom, colour, landscape/close up options.

edit: whoops, forgot to attatch the pics.

Ok, I decided to try my hand at some long exposure shots tonight. Here are the results.

Comments and critique please.

kikkoman · Aug 2, 2004

Got to love those long exposured shots.

Here are a few of mine.

Err, it wasn't intentional though, I just took photos randomly while being in the passenger side of a car with worn out shock absorbers.

Pretty happy with the experimental results though.

CDailey · Aug 2, 2004

Looks sweet. 👍 I love long exposure shots.

ITR, one thing I might suggest is messing with the depth of field, and using the macro setting on your camera when taking close up shots. In some of the pics it looks like you camera isn't focusing towards the flower. I'll have my shots up soon once I load them into gallery

skylineGTR_guy · Aug 5, 2004

here are some of my shots

I have a Fuji S5000 digital camera if anyone cares.

skylineGTR_guy · Aug 6, 2004

ITR here is what I'm talking about:

In this first shot everything in the front is blurry but the background is in focus, this is because I manually adjusted the aperture. I'm not sure if your camera can do this, generally if you want to make sure your camera is focused place the center of your camera on what you want to photograph and push the button half way down, this will lock the focus and pushing it down fully will take the picture, sometimes you can lock the photo up close then take a picture of something if you want the background to be blurry or vice versa.

In this picture, I've re adjusted it and everything is more clear both foreground and bacground but the foreground is still slightly blurry

Now since we are trying to take a pic of the flower and dont care about anything else I turn on the macro feature, and all the details jump out

CDailey · Aug 6, 2004

Thanks. My camera does have the macro setting and I did use it for every picture of a flower (I think I did it on the last set...can't remember). I'm not really understanding this apurture thing. Got any links on an explination?

Your aperture determines how much light gets in, the lower the number, the bigger the opening and more light gets in, the opposite for a higher number

Those are some really awesome pics what camera did you use?

OmicroN · Aug 21, 2004

A photo I took near Portland, Oregon. A place called multnomah falls. This is just part of it. The actual falls are 620 feet up. I walked 1 mile uphill, back and forth, in 100+ degree weather, to get to the top, it was exhausting.

I took a good picture of the scenery from the top, actually I took a lot of pictures, but this one's best. I really need a 6mp camera or something, lol.

I have a picture of a sunset from Hawaii i'll get it up in a bit.

Sunset in Maui

Sunrise on a summit of some mountain in Maui, it was freezing so you better like it.

After the sun rose I took a picture of the clouds and mountains
