Self taught......

[ktsnap]

Ok so i am slowly getting my head around all this photography business. i am teaching myself so it is a long process but i still dont know if i am actually doing it right or if im on the right track so i need your help. People are my main subject. went to a party recently and had some cute little subjects to shoot at. I am happy with the photos that i took but still questioning myself? Is the colour and the lighting right, What about the focus and the crop of the photo? I know u guys can help me answer these questions. Thanks for looking.

I can't see a picture. The uploader has been on the blink lately. If you can post from flickr or another site like that, it would be great!

ok didnt have a flickr account 5 mins ago! do now! have no idea how to use it yet. how do i get the photos from flickr to this site?

There is a flickr tutorial around here somewhere. But the jist is, upload your photo, go to the bottom of the photo and there will be a bit of url, copy that (you know right click select copy), come back here and left click on the picture icon , paste your copied url into it (make sure you don't double the "http" part) while you are inside your post (use the edit function).

Ok........ so think i have it now. What an effort!!!!

Oh my! But oh so worth every bit. You are very blessed. The only thing I would change would be to try and get the subject against a darker background. Blond and light skin against a light color doesn't contrast enough. But that is a nitpik to be sure. I think you've done a right proper job there.

thanks for your help and feedback. muchly appreciated. at least now i know i am on the right track.

Lovely shot. I agree with the above, a slightly darker background, or bump up the contrast levels a little in Photoshop. (or whatever editing program you use).

Id also aim in future to get a little extra space under her chin, but thats just a matter of personal taste. :-)

Lovely work, and such a cute subject. :-)
