Gee, Stig. That's fair.
LOL--I'm going to go into the **** industry and learn all the tricks of the trade, and then we'll really see what is what!
...actually, I do want to learn photography though; this is a great thread.

Well I've been through a regular and advanced photography class, with all that crap, I'm just an amateur and I do this for hobby, I don't plan on going professional, but I would love to bring my pictures to that level.
Thanks for the compliment though, if you (or anyone on this forum for that matter) has any questions about photography, just let me know and I'll answer to the best of my ability.

Well Yarou the only thing I'd give you crap about is posting pictures that aren't yours . . .the idea is to get us taking some sweet pictures and posting them up.
Although I do like that HDR one! ^_^
The picture you took of your apartment building is nice, I'm not complaining at all, I'm just an amateur with training and experience, don't let me sway your judgment of a picture or have you feel uneasy towards posting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
That said . . .here's 2 more. . . remember guys, it's the quality of the picture, not the quantity, don't post 100 pics in a post if they all are garbage, post 1 or 2 really good ones, and keep the page load times to a mild roar.
Figured I'd show off some versatility . . .an indoor night shot, low light, very low shutter speed, low F-Stop
And one out doors, high shutter speed, high F-Stop, bright light . . . .
Notice that I push the threshold very far in my pictures, I like seeing just how much detail I can include in my shots before distortion and whiteout happens.
And a bonus shot . . .a picture of mine that made it into a few local magazines.
Later!

I like the first 3 a LOT . . .I mean a whoooole BUNCH! ^_^
The last one wants to draw your attention away from what I feel is the main subject, the car. It almost makes the main subject the refrigerator and it burns out the fridges appearance
Overall, I'd still give you an A-, the last picture is a C at best and that killed your average
But I still love ya . . .lets see some more amazing shots!

hehehehe, it's a D70S, I love that camera, it has more than high enough resolution for the avid shutter bug and it can show enough detail that even professionals take a second look at their cameras which costs thousands of dollars. On top of that, it's cheap to service (45 bucks from Nikon themselves), lots of lens selections and plenty of peripherals and software goodies to make you want to keep going on for years and years.

HDR is always a good toy and you've gotta love the extended shutter speeds . . .I have one like that around here somewhere . . .
Ahh here we are . . .
This one is a night shot, believe it or not, 4 seconds, F4.5. It almost looks day time!
This one is a doozy . . . 30 second shutter, F11, Flourescent white balance.
hehe I wikey photography ^_^
