Default Random shots
I went round my parents the other day and took my camera round to show them.

Took these shots just randomly snapping things from their lounge to show them the camera and I actually quite like them.

Yellow Roses

Bird on Fence

bananas

Random is cool sometimes.

Welcome to DPS Stuart and random is indeed cool. A lovely set of pictures for your parents to see. All have great detail, focus and colour and I look forward to seeing more of your work

Hi Stuart,
I love the dof on the banana shot. It realy highlights just what you want the viewer to see without any distractions in the background etc.
Very nice
