I really love that second shot, the lighting is perfect.

Thanks a lot for all your responses guys. At the moment i have only got the GIMP for my editing so im not sure how possible it will be to do all of these tutorials, although ive looked at them and they seem pretty useful. Perhaps i would just be best investing in photoshop :thinking...

I love the texture that this guy gets in this photo, but im not really sure how to go about doing it when it comes to editing my photos. Is it all down to PP techniques or is it just down to the original image. Any help would be appreciated There are a couple more like it on his flickr...

Good luck with the 365! Nice shots so far, I love the January the 3rd photo.

i quite like it. The exposure it good and i think the statue contrasts well with the wall behind it. I do find the shadow a little bit distracting but thats only a minor criticism. (i think they are the correct terms for what i was trying to say, but its the first time i have given any...

Ok here is my dilemma, i currently have a D60 with the kit lens and a 50mm f1.8. I feel like i have reached my limitations with the kit lens and have got a bit fed up of having to focus the 50mm manually. I think im missing good images because my focussing is sometimes slightly out...

thanks for the replys chaps, Shutterman and Banath, what did you do to give the photo that "dirty" sort of look. Its the effect i was thinking of when i first wanted to edit the photo but dont really know how to achieve it. Andy your picture isnt showing up unfortunately :thinking:

i think that for all the learning you can do from books/courses/online, nothing really beats just getting stuck in and trying new things out. Well thats been the best way for me learning new stuff anyway. :cool:

:thumbs: Nice one! Congratulations.

At the moment im hoping for a nikon 35mm and the sigma 17-70 with IS. Not going to cost too much but would still dent my student loan :(

yep
