i would buy all including her.  

blowsh: #1 and #2 have weird angles. Your beach table shot also a bit weirdly cropped.

normally AEL use together with spot metering, decide a place to meter your subject (normally nearest to 18% colour, like skin tone) press AEL (it just lock your metering / exposure info)
and recompose..

for a200/a300/a350 there is physical AEL button
also for a33/a55
(not sure about a500/a550 but im assuming a580 have).

but for a230/a330/a380/a290/a390 there is no physical AEL button. if u use spot metering, it locks the exposure when u lock your AF  . this one is after a firmware update (for a230/a330/a380)

etc : a33/a55

blowsh: Ah now I know how you got your nickname!

I like the ripples on the water - what if you had a cropped picture that just features a lot of ripples?

kysham: Wah you brought it out?

empty-ball: Ah, finally, some wireless flashing!

Of course, if the front light was brighter it would be better.

blowsh: Wow, amazingly close! Could be just a bit more vibrant though.

blowsh: The Tamron has weaker magnification (1:4.5x) compared to the Minolta 35-70mm F4 (1:4x). I would guess the Minolta does better but you should try it.

Nice shot, quite abstract. Could use minor brightening in the bottom part though.
