Well finally got my New camera delivered all the extras as a starter kit i wanted, was aiming at heading to an old abandoned Dye makers mill near my local town but sadly its been recently developed into apartments ( looked amazing not long ago all derelict , stupid houses!) but seeing as it was now homes for people and a nice dog walker trail i thought id do the generic Macro and "nature" pictures with the lovely weather and being in countryside.

please bear in mind this is my very first time using any camera with all the amazing settings you can change like contrasts, balances , shutter speeds etc and i think i have gotten a grasp of the ISO/contrasting quite well so far for literally 15 minutes worth of purposely aiming at taking pictures.

would love to hear your feed back regarding these

Thanks man been something ive thought of getting for a while but learning about how many abandoned mills and even a crashed airplane site from WW2 and a theme park! right within an hours drive/public travel from my home sorta sealed the deal with how nice the weathers been near me so far

thanks for the feedback aswell

Thanks , and hopefully once i figured out the contrast / iso functions a bit and tried experiementing with them it made a huge diffirence in the picture i would feel was right

Camera is a "Pentax X-5" BRidge camera.

Didnt want to jump right into DSLR yet just due to a nice entry level being around 250 and bridhe cameras are a plenty for 100~160ish and this one has so many features that i found made it really stand out , but a rather big factor for bridge choice was the compactness/portability for holidays etc

Wow, you have a natural talent there my friend.
The composition and depth are great

keep at it and keep us posted

(as a side note, check out some stock photography sites, for 2 reasons, 1 - ideas 2 Make money selling your own)

Nicely done.


Thanks the feedback is greatly appreciated , planning on head out quite a bit with weather so nice and theres places like this all around me . kinda weird to say this was literally 10 feet from the main road (granted a small A/B road) and wasnt far from the small residential car park on the left of the daisy pictures , behind me on the main tree one , and to the right of where butter fly was is the carpark

Thank you for the very kind words , i would probably say most of this is pure luck but alot is just the natural scenary being so cool to begin with

will check out some of the stock photo sites and possibley look into selling stocks later on when im alot better but i only really doing photography as a nice pass time and as something i enjoy

Glad you got yourself a decent camera Im sure your loving it right now

Your photography is really nice! Contrasting is nice, not to heavy on any effects which really helps!! There is plenty of depth to your images and overall the choice of images is good

Keep up the good work and i look forward to seeing more of your photo's.

Thanks and ofcourse im loving it always nice to get a nice new toy that youve really set on ^^

thanks for the compliments on the photos i dunno what you mean by the effects whether theres some in camera stuff like filters etc (found a "simulated fish eye" option and slightly cringed XD) but all the photos here are just Point and shoot tried to get what i was aiming for in a nice focus and then took 2 or 3 shots with diffirent ISO to get some colours a bit more lifelike
