    Guys,

    Thanks again to everyone that has helped me recently.  I haven’t had a chance to get any fish pictures yet, but have been practicing daily taking pictures of my daughter,  nieces and  dogs.  I’ll share a few of my results.  I know my pictures probably have a lot of flaws right now, but I’m just really enjoying playing around with it.  I’ve got a lot of learning to do, but I wouldn’t be where I am now without this board and its members and I’m very grateful.  Thanks for your help thus far and in the future.

    Good stuff … My personal taste runs to #3 and #8.

    Wow, great shots !

    #3 is awesome, a beautiful picture with a simple and lovely feel – very well done.

    Only comment I would make is the color is a little cold (auto white balance?), while it still works I think a warmer version would be better for a baby shot.

    Another thing is the focus – I would normally try to get the eye closest to the lens.

    A picture is thousand words that takes less than a second while a thousand words is a picture that takes a month.

    you can always bump up the warmth a bit in Post…if you shot that in RAW add a little red saturation or if not you can probably do it in picasa.

    Learning to do post work is a whole ‘nother issue for me.

    Matt, I love your control of light and shadows 🙂  Especially picture three.  Nice depth.  Thanks for sharing.

    Matt, I am a huge fan of properly executed B&W shots, I absolutely love your first shot!!!!! Many will try for the extra crisp sharpness but I am a huge fan of an artistic blur and yours is great, in that shot.

    When you get into learning some post software, do yourself a favor and not let technical skill advancements take away your present artistic flare from delivering some “GREAT” B&W photographs

    Wow, that is great shot of a cute kid – love the blue blue eyes !

    Tight crops like that give a head shot a lot of impact.

    Well done.. 😉
