Hi every sifu. I'm just a newbie in photography, photo taken by using Canon S2 IS. This can be considered as the 1st digital camera I owned (before this I don't have a digital camera, always use other ppl one, and i didn't have chance to play around as well). All of them i took inside my house. Photoshop is used to add the frame and the wording.

Anyway, comment needed for my picture

1.

2.

3.

Thanks for viewing, and feel free to drop a comment (even a destructive / criticism one, as i need them too to improve)

Hi, i think your shots are good for a newbie albeit the usual composition issues. Seems your style is more towards the abstract side, so do shoot more while you train your eye for discerning interesting objects & patterns to make winning pictures!

3 great shots. you put many DSLR newbies to shame you know.

only thing about your shot I'd say is try not to use transparent frames. if you look around forum, most people use BLACK frame or not frame at all.

and try to have nicer water mark.

besides those stuff - great shots!

btw for shot #2, i could say try to align the bars to be as straight as it could be while for #3, you might want to consider clearing the background or set it up nicely for the shot.

Thanks for your encouragement bro

Oh really.. Now i see.. the frame.. noted

Hehe, paiseh.. that messy bunch of junk on the table and also on the sofa.. Didn't realise it also Appreciate your comment How about those adjustment of shuttle speed and aperture in these 3 pictures? Anything that i need to improve/ set wrongly? Or that one is up to one's preference? Thanks again

Luckily I'm still using S3 and not SLR. So no shame on me. LOL

As for your photo, generally ok, a little sharpen will help on your reduced size photo. I think you got to go out and shoot

Seriously pretty impressive stuffs here. I just feel pic no 3 will be much better if a DSLR is used. Looks not so sharp to me on pic no 3.

#1 and #2 are nice..

but #3 seems like OOF ?? izzit ?

nicholas, it's the output that matters.




was referring to some happy shots done by new SLR owners. *NO NAMES MENTIONED*

Sharpen as in the effect done in the photoshop? Hehe, just got the cam for 3 days, will try to go out and shoot

Thanks for your comment bro

Erm, just a wild guess.. OOF is out of focus? I was trying to use the macro function, guess that the output is not sharp enough ( on the particular area that i wanna focus ).. and the messy background

Hehe, alright

yes it is.

Someone has new toy to play with ad
Show us some 0cm macro pahwahhh:D

Hehe bro.. but i really appreciate the 'lecture' u gave me hehe.. but sadly this will not be my toy after 1 month.. it'll stay in australia with my gf haha maybe that time grab another cam from u

You meant the "lecture"?

sad? You should be thankful that your gf taking it away from you so that you can get yourself a DSLR.

p/s: nice pics for beginner

Ah haha sorry for the typo
Lol, no money to get a DSLR le, but to be frank, this cam ignites my interest towards photography, and now i learn to appreciate those pictures.. before that i used to think "it's just a picture, what is so special about it?" Now i learn

Spend less on your modding, invest in photography

especially love your 2nd pic
even i wanna see it sharper and more contrast abit

Thanks a lot.. i'll try to improve.. actually that pic i got it accidently.. i mean i didn't know the output will be ok when i saw it thru the small LCD screen on the digicam, until i saw it in my pc..

Picture no 2 look nice. Keep it up~*

Thanks

a non-dslr user wif potential. reminds me of my TZ1 days... keep pushing ya camera to the limit ya! pic 2 is awesome.
