Photography

Post by GWhizz »

I think I forgot to put this in my Introduction didn't want to sound braggy

I am a keen photographer and have a Photography page if you click my profile it should take you there.

I am into Landscapes, Portraits, Sunsets, Flowers and some more emotional work

here's some of my work to get your lips watering - No Dribbling please!!

The building was I think, a stately home in Bedford I went to a steam traction engine rally with my folks. Got a photo of one called The Iron Maiden!

What you have to do to post an image is to find the image properties, you do this by right clicking the picture, there should be properties listed then you copy the image address and paste it right after the ([img])%20and%20then%20close%20it%20again%20after%20the%20address%20with%20([/img]) or you can use the add image to post

I think this is a lot easier, A delete a lot of the pants ones on my camera it's more often then not luck. Plus with a digital camera you can frame a lot of your shots. I think I would be totally lost doing traditional photography sloshing about liquids and stuff!

I think digital photography is great too. I've taken thousands of photos on my trip so far and when I get home I can easily select the best and make them look their best using Photoshop. It makes powerful developing and optimisation tools accessible to far more people than would have ever been popular in the past.

Thanks for sharing your photos.
