    I so totally just copied what I wrote on another forum for this thread @_@

    Sorry Cocobeanz if this is the wrong place ): I asked like 3 people and they said here.

    Well I have already shown some people, but I kind of wanted to show everyone else too, wider audience means more input right? More input means I can improve and all that jazz (or at least hopefully)

    So anyway, to get to the point, I am interested in photography; my camera comes with me pretty much everywhere XD but I’m not all that awesome at it, so I am hoping that some people can give me tips to work on.

    I already know some of my issues; for example apparently my lighting sucks and my focus points are kind of awkward O_O

    So here are some photos, let me know what you think?

    I remember when you showed me these pictures on MSN, and I must say, even without good lighting, they are beautiful sights, nonetheless. :3
    At least it's not blurry like other "photography", y'know. xD

    these look familiar. :P

    I told you how much i loved these before, and what i suggested then was to always try to find different levels not always just the stand up and shoot. Get on your knees, take a different perspective; sometimes it works other times it doesn't.

    Your neck of the woods is so much cooler than mine...stupid desert...

    Very nice.
    I only wish the focal points were more defined. Some have very nice focals, but others are a bit... meh.
    Also, perhaps some cropping/editing is needed for the lighting you desire?
    Also, some natural bordering would be a nice effect in more than a few of those.

    Thanks loves,

    I messed around with a couple of them and I think they look a little better,

    http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb235/Kalahexy/Stonehengeandothersites031-1-2.jpg I don't like this one o.o I think I prefered the original even if it was darker.

    http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb235/Kalahexy/Stonehengeandothersites052-1-1.jpg All I did was crop this one, but I think it worked well o.o

    Yes? no?

    @ Guilty Spark: uhm can I have an example please D: if it isn't too much trouble <3

    D: help.

    I am well aware that my editing skills are nothing short of disaster xDDDDDD OMFG I have killed some photos before *twitches at memories*

    I think I want to get better at my general picture taking before I start messing too much with editing.


    As promised I did take some new photos whilst I was away:

    I took a hell of a lot more than this, but these are just some for now.

    So help D:

    Take a turn for sunset's and sunrises eh? I really like the first one and the last one just because of the differences. The third one I think is too dark, even with the flashe, yet it is still a cool picture with the moon(?) all glowy mysterious.
