For all of you who take the time to mentor. The improvements are thanks to you.

As you can see from the date stamp this was taken about a year and a half ago and I was happy with the shot.

Yesterday I posted this shot. Same camera, same species. Thanks to one and all for taking the time to educate me.

Excellent post Brian!

I can only hope to show that much progress eventually.
Nice second shot by the way.

I echo your sentiments 1000%. What a vast improvement! Kudos!

Kudos, Brian. Input only helps if it's received. Not being a bug guy, all I can do is watch with interest.

This is a remarkable demonstration, Brian. It's a testament to the Cambridge in Color tagline: "A Learning Community for Photographers." I'm sure everyone who helped you along the way (I'm not one of them) would say that all the advice in the world wouldn't have helped if you hadn't persevered, considered all the suggestions, some of which were surely off-base by accident or understandable lack of knowledge, and worked to improve your skills. Exceptionally well done!

Gotta love this board! I don't know of a more helpful friendly place.

Thanks to all!

if you happen to be a studio guy that is where I'm headed next.

Thank-you. I hope that when the studio leads me into Glass you will be there too.

Mentors can be sooooo bossy. But you are right it is time to get back indoors.

Good one Brian, it shows your perseverance has payed off. What it also shows is that whilst your camera has its limitations learning how to get the best out of what you have can be fun and rewarding.

Is that camera worn out yet?

I'm more concerned about the bug.

Not yet and I can't really justify a new one till it does! Maybe if i was to take a a shot of the nicely cleaned toilet bowl and it dropped....
