Do some research online on all the basics of photography. Try to develop some understanding of how to frame a shot, what proper aperture to use,what shutter speeds to use, etc etc. Your shots were taken at night and night shots are never easy (even if you're equipped with a D90.) If you want to digdeeper, go find a photography book at the library or at a bookstore.Originally Posted by ATLien Seeko

When I mentioned framing the shot, I meant how to capture an effective image as opposed to just pressing a button and getting a picture. Anyonecan take a picture but not many do it well. It's not a knock on you at all btw. You have to figure out what makes an image interesting and what willcapture the attention of someone that looks at the photo. You might have an interesting subject (such as the building) but is the shot you took the best way ofpresenting it? Let's take a look at those car shots. Were those really the most effective angles you could have taken? The one from below the car isn'tfocused correctly and you're getting weird things (like your shadow.) The other one it seems like you're shooting horizontal to the car. Ask yourselfwhether there's a better way you could approach that shot. It's also pretty important to keep the rule of thirds in mind too.Originally Posted by ATLien Seeko

Right. I'm not being a smartass, but I figured that. I can tell how much of a difference good light makes. That's on the list of things to get in the future, along with a tripod in the near future. Thanks for your advice though.

I have The Digital Photography Book and I read most of it, so I picked up on a lot of the tips from there. Most of it has to do with keeping the camera steady though... Night shots are the worse when it comes to movement and shakey hands, that's why I need a tripod. I'm not quite sure about what you mean when you say frame a shot though? Does that mean getting objects straight in the frame? I have a hard time with that without a tripod. Like the photo where the building looks like it's leaning. I'll take all of your advice. Thanks for it.
'sall good, my apologies then. Good luck shooting and have fun.Originally Posted by Halftime718
I did i just want opinions from my NT brothern sorry for rushing.
Is it really a point and shoot because i need a manual camera even though i emailed my teacher and she said it looked okay i just dont want her to tell me later its not acceptable for the course.
Thanks again
for those shots, change your w/b. what aperture are you shooting on? at night, open it all the way and keep your hand steady for a long exposure.boost up that ISO, enough so it can take the night shot, but not too much so its noisy/grainy.Originally Posted by ATLien Seeko
