Just bought my wife a DSLR camera in an attempt to get her into a hobby. I however took the camera today to try my hand at some picture taking. Here's what I got. No tri-pod, just the basic lense, and some fooling around with the camera settings.















































Comments, tips, etc. welcome. still learning the in's and out's of a DSLR camera.

 

Some pretty cool shots in there. I think you set the ISO too high, reason for the grainy pictures. I'd bump that down, and play with the shutter speed next time.

p.s. Love that first shot

 

when i changed the setting to whatever the "scenery" setting was it put the iso on auto. Took all the pics of the GPW in that setting. The others were on manual everything. Looks like all the pics except for the GPW ones game out non-grainy. maybe lighting wasnt correct for the scenery setting.

we can only hope

 

Those are some great shots, you have an eye for photography

PS If she doesn't have a hobby by now she's probably not a "hobby" type of person, good luck.

 

that first pic is pretty awesome. maybe iso was too high for the gpw

 

Pete is a rock star

 

thanks guys!

 

These are some nice shots... however in some of them I think IF you are post editing them they are a little over done... just my .02
