Think I'm just gonna throw it in the trash and give up. Those are awesome pictures!

Yeah, think i`ll just delete my pics.LOL Digital cameras do make it alot easier and less expensive to experiment. I had a friend years ago that was a professional photographer, he gave me some hints and tips and a piece of advice i`ll never forget. He said, if you`re worried about how much it costs or worried about wasting film, you`ll never get the good shots. Get a power winder and shoot. And take that camera out of auto, put it in manual and practice. With film it could get kinda pricey, digital makes it alot more affordable.

Why thank you! That is precisely why I continue to visit my sim racing forum since I no longer race anymore. It's for the photography thread. On a photo forum, I would be mashed into the ground with "too much noise, you need better DOF, you should get a dSLR," etc.

Yours aren't too shabby there, from the first post, Pudknocker (LOL at the name ) The firework shot is great, I haven't attempted one yet. That sunset I would die for to be able to shoot. It is gorgeous. I have too many hills, mountains, and trees along the skyline to get good sunset shots. We get a slight tint of red and pink in the sky for a few minutes, then it's dark. I would love to have a golden sunset to shoot.

Well..thanks. I get lucky. Just living in Florida does the trick.

That is suposed to mean? I didnt take them with a D-SLR.. I havnt signed mine out yet.. I have my 35mm SLR yashica FX-2 but just used my digital camera.. The brightness is to much and needs more contrast, once I get my DSLR it will be much better!
