Originally posted by little laker I agree with Marc, Rice. That is a beautiful shot.
And it proves that you can take an excellent photograph with a relatively cheep camera body
I'm another one that wouldn't mind seeing more of your pic's.
Thank you both for the kind comments.
To respond to your suggestion/query, I normally do not post my pics owing to a few good reasons. First is that I found that most of my pics are mediocre ones and not worth posting (frankly), second is I did/do portraits for girls and children mostly but most of which are done privately (not for earning any money) and I could not post these unless I obtained consent from these people (which is then not practical for most cases). Thirdly, I actually do not have more time to organise and post on web my mediocre photos as I am too busy (note that I am not *always* posting here too, but just sometimes) and so on.
Back to the topic and regarding my this example, I do hope that my K100D could have a better AWB and faster AF so that I could do these automatically with the assistance of my *tool*. In fact, when I did all the things manually, I have the full control, but Auto things sometimes maybe better and could save a lot of time at the field and thus could get more (photo) chances.
