[QUOTE="nidding, post: 240566, member: 17555"] [b]Re: nidding's first year of shooting[/b] You are definitely right! Actually I do think I learned a bit about flash photography - about which I know almost nothing. But here I needed to set i a bit below full power, and crank up the ISO to get what I wanted. So yes. In that way every photo is aa good photo - because we can learn from it :) From there to being interesting to look at. that's a whole other story ;) Hello. And thank you very much. You are most certainly right as well! The goal with this thread is precisely to have fun and get better. I think that ultimately my goal with photography is to be able to tell something with a single photo, and to make photos that are interesting to look at, just as well as capturing a moment, both for myself, but still being a photo worth looking at for a complete stranger. So the "warning" was in some way ironic. I will tend to shoot pictures that mean something to me because of the subject matter. This I can already do (most of the time), as this is simply a matter of getting focus and exposure right, and framing to some degree.

Here we go for day two, with a little idea that popped into my head this morning Day 2 [URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/nidding/11716415803/"][IMG]http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3706/11716415803_f932a68991_c.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Also by band started some pre-recordings, which seemed to be a perfect excuse to whip out the camera for a few BW shots.
