    I think the one with the cars would look better if you took it from the front of the cars, with all the bonnets facing towards you. That's a nice photo too though

    When you have a nice setup, like the car shot above, take the time to walk all the way around your subject. Also, change the angles that you normally shoot from (get on one knee or even lay down, I've also been known to stand on a car bumper or two to get higher). The wonderful thing about digital is if it's crap there is always the delete button.

    Nice work Carly.....keep it up, let's see some more.

    thank you both for the comments. i actually took quite a few of the car shots, and some are different angles (like this and this), but i couldn't spend too long on it as i had to climb over a wall to get to them and was half on the look out for some angry french guy to come out shouting at me

    What kind of camera are you using Carly?
    I like the dragon fly!! The colours of it are really great, though the background colour is rather drab.
    The cars are neat!! How did you find so many of them? Those are really old aren't they? Actually guys, had she taken a frontal shot of those cars, she could not have gotten all the contrasting colours as she did. I like the angle you used Carly! Maybe a closer shot from the same angle would have been better. Oo la la! Look out for those french guys! LOL!
    The building is very nice but on this one I would have liked a close up shot of the old wood and stone. At this distance you really don't get the full effect of the wonderful textures of the wood and stone. Including a bit of greenery was a good idea though! It gave some colour to the overall brown tone of the foto.

    YES! 2CV2 is what I was thinking of! but a bit further in front to avoid the building and the other cars at the end. The clouds and the tree line are a great too!

    yep those cars were very old. but also very expensive!! i have a sony cybershot 5.1, it's pretty new and i am still getting to know it. it's my first digital camera too, so it's kind of all new to me, but i think i could really get into this. just wish i had more money as i think pretty soon i am going to be wishing i could afford new lenses (at least).

    with regard to the building- yeah i am now regretting not getting closer- the textures would have been great

    anyway, thank you for your comments, they're much appreciated

    one of these two, which is funny because the first one is one of the first rolls I shot and the last one is one of the latest rolls...

    What are you trying to highlight Carly? That's a lot of blank sky there. On a cloudy day with some dramatic lighting this would be a great shot. Maybe only 1/3 of the photo should be sky. Not sure, there's just not a lot there.

    just IMHO...

    Nothing wrong with the color.....it is nice. Just going for color...try to make it abstract. I just LOVE this image. I might try that myself.

    Not saying you need this, but info ALWAYS helps.....have you checked out Jodie Coston's Free Online Photography Course yet? She really lays out some nice points, and going throught the forums can inspire some wonderful things. Plus, she kinda cute too (I know, you hate that sorta thing ).

    Good luck

    Bobalouy: nice shot, great colours!

    Carly: I like, good job. I haven't seen a sky that blue in months (we've had a crappy summer ) !
