As some of you may know i have recently joined the ranks of the DSLR owners, coming from a point and click culture.
I have been taught a very important lesson today and probably the biggest step towards taking better pictures. KEEP CAMERA CLOSE! i was driving to work (to pick up second hand lens that was delivered there rather than home address) on my day off. Driving back past the fields, the farmer was plowing and there were just hundreds of seagulls picking at the field. Something i have seen 100 times in the past but this time i thought WOW that would be an amazing picture.
This also taught me another lesson, its not about the magnification a lens can give you, but being able to see (corny pun time) the whole picture.
There really are some great pictures out there just waiting to be taken even just on the door step or even of the door step!
