excellent shot, great idea

Much better David, works really well now

Rob, let me give you some advice. When commenting on other peoples work, think before you write something, try a little tact. You annoyed me with what you wrote, but others would get upset and you can put people off there efforts altogether by making harsh comments. You're only a kid, and don't tell me what I have and haven't discovered, I've probably forgotten more than you know. Anyway, I'm not going to turn this into a slanging match, just be a little more diplomatic in future. I don't mind if someone criticises my work, but theres a thing called constructive ctiticism, you know where you give advice on how something could be better achieved. At your age and level of experience, I really don't think you have that much to offer (I'm not trying to insult you, I'm just pointing out a fact!) I was experementing with the images to see what I could create, rather than copying other teqchniques, and it wasn't just a case of addind "a" filter, there is a process that goes into all of them. other people liked it and gave me clicks. Of course I didn't expect everyone to like it. Generally, if I don't like something, I either don't comment or I try to give someone a bit of advice. I don't proffess to be an expert in any way, but sometimes people need a little pointing in the right direction, for one thing I NEVER rubbish anyones attempts.

Anyway, your work is ok, I like some of your pics, you do show potential and have an eye for a good image. When I get myself a scanner I'll upload some of my older shots, taken with proper cameras, then you'll see what I can do, and what I've discovered. In the meaning of proper, I bought the S7000 earlier this year, they are only toys in comparison. I got it for cost efficiency and convienience. I like the quality it produces, looks good on a monitor anyway, and thats the way photography is going. Some years ago, I owned a Hasselblad 500cm, now thats a proper camera. There is a world of difference beleive me. That's going back a while, I had an absence from photography for a few years due to illness and am only just getting back into it. So, please no more comments like your first one, I don't mind you telling me things like "the colours look a little flat", which by the way, they look quite strong on my screen, thats why i didn't increase them any more, but just mark my words and think before you comment.

Now after my little rant, good look with your course and all the best.

Beautiful colours David, nice1
