Hi, my names Joe and this is my first attempt at taking some very beginner photo's with a new Sony DSC-W70 that I picked up. I just popped off a couple shots from around my house to see how I liked the camera. I want to emphasize on beginner:D

I warmed up all 3 of these using Adobe Lightroom:

For a first attemp it looks fine to me, I am sure in no time at all, you will master the use of your camera and be able to shoot fantastic shots. Keep on shooting.

It looks like you're off to a good start. I like the third image with the old glass insealators a lot :)

Very nice, Cultex! I like the lemons myself - how you captured not just the lemons themselves but the environment they are in. Nicely framed too.

Welcome to PR! Hope you continue to post here and we look forward to hearing your comments :)

Thanks for the compliments everybody! I plan on sticking with the digi I have now, and then sometime next year picking an SLR of some sort.

I have to go for the lemons as well, love the angle that you have taken this shot at, and as Loupey says the environement they are in. Thanks for sharing and look forward to more pics!!

only due to the 2 great mods here being present while JS was on a hiatus :D

Might I add that both forums are great and each has it's own style that must be mastered, though I am not a sports fan myself :wink:

"Ohhhh, so the cup goes under the shorts.... ":p :) :D

I like poking fun at sports photogs only because I haven't had the chance to join em. Otherwise, I'd probably jump ship (at least temporarily) :)

Seriously, all good folks here at PR. We just have the most fun here :thumbsup:
