All,

I recently purchased Pentax K100D Super with the 18-55 mm lens. This is my first post and the first set of pictures I had taken over the weekend. Please review these pics and suggest me if any improvents can be made on the composition or other fatures....

Hi Suresh,
Congratulations on your purchase. Your shots are good.
A couple of things to watch for is to straighten the horizon (otherwise all the water runs out...!!.....) and don't be frightened to get your knees wet or sandy. That means try getting down to the waters level for a different perspective occasionally.
The rule of thirds is often offered as a must do...but as with all rules, its very existence invites trangression. Never be frightened to experiment, the great thing about digital.

Also have a look behind you because sometimes the light playing on other things presents great opportunities.

Did you use a tripod / monopod or hand held? I find a monopod a constant companion.
Well done, look forward to seeing more.
Cheers.

Thanks GWP for your input. All the shots were handheld. I realised that the horizon was little tilted after I had uploaded the pictures.

Thanks again..

Suresh
