This is my first time posting to the forums! Kind of nerve wracking. I just got my camera (a Canon Rebel XS) a couple weeks ago, and I've been playing around with it a lot. I really want to improve, so be harsh! Let me know what you think of my technique in regards to framing and PP.



1/25 at f/4.5, ISO 800

Thanks for your thoughts!

It's hard to tell from such a small image, but I'm more drawn to the flower, than the girl.

here is a link to the larger image...I couldn't figure out how to put this one on my thread, so I just settled for the smaller one

i wanted the flowers to stand out, so I tried to carry the color of the flowers throughout the whole picture by bringing out the girl's hair and the frame a little too.

Seeing how you wanted the flowers to be the main subject.....I think you did pretty good.

I'd have liked it better as a portrait if you used one flower, and had more light on her eyes.
