Title: *brandishes Camera*
Description: beware, novice on the loose!

Alright, where to begin... So, I've always taken an interest to photography so you can imagine my joy when I got into the course at my highschool. I think I'm fairly decent for a beginner, but who knows! I love to hear feedback and I promise my feelings won't get hurt if you have something to offer to improve my photos. Actually, I'll probably like you more. :p So, let us commence with the picture displaying:
1. Beads
2. Yummy Cake
3. Fountain
4. Pathway
"Profound," says my friend. Who knows if he was being sarcastic, though...
5. Swings
Oh god, the cloning on this makes me cringe. I hate cloning.
6. Cloudy Beach Day
7. Cliche Lockers
8. Pink Flower
My teacher is inexplicably enamored with this photo.
9. Red Flower
10. Pomegranates... Yummy.
I like this one.
11. Raindrops
I hope you can tell that the whole grainy high-contrast effect is on purpose >>
12. Flower's Reflection
Does it seem sloppy to you?
13. Tree
14. Railroads Crossing
15. Bucket
16. Cups
I don't know if I like the filter. It was sort of forced upon me.
17. Pearls (Fake, of course)
18. Stop!
This one was actually inspired by someone else on rpg-d (or at least I think it was here...) so I don't deserve complete credit for this.
19. Ohh, Sushi...
It was hard not to devour the food for this one.[Really, really random side-note but: is anyone extremely bothered by the fact that I forgot to capitalize "brandishes" in the title? I am.]

Oooo, me likey ^.^
With #12, you could have played with the macro settings on your camera and gotten some different lighting. It seems kinda... blah.
Overall, pretty good!

Ooh, thanks for the suggestion! I used to be pretty terrible with dealing with the macro settings but I'm getting better xD

Wow, these are good. You've really got the angle down and your lighting is good too. Keep it up. I like the railroad crossing a lot.

Thanks, Sunny :] The railroad one is a favorite of mine too.

I liked Pathway, and the angle taken in the Swings image... Though generally, all of them are excellent! I'm starting to get into the whole Photography thing as well, though my pictures aren't as great as these. ^__^

I'd love to see your pictures, iolanaelle!

T'is Olivia.
I really, really love the swing set picture. Something about it just makes you stop and stare. Maybe the colour? They are all lovely though. The flower ones are nice and the pomegranate is really neat. Not to mention that yummy looking sushi.

Aww, thanks 'livia! A lot of people have mentioned they like the swing set one o.O I had a lot of fun messing with the layers and such so I guess that had something to do with it.
p.s. I haven't talked to you in ages!
