Well, I took all of my photos on Thanksgiving. Some of them were horrible and some of them turned out pretty good. I did a lot of practicing using a lot of the advice that all of you gave me. Most of the shots I took that I felt turned out decent, were the ones that I took in a screened-in porch. Seemed like I didnt have enough light indoors and at times, too much outdoors. My group shots did not turn out very well. I had two choices: I could position everyone either up on a hill, or down on the hill. Very awkward positioning. So I didnt have enough experience to figure out where to position everyone. I learned a lot. Practice is priceless. Thank you all for all of your advice. I am sure I will need it again!

I would love to be able to go outside, but it is possible that the weather will not permit. I do not have access to any other flash. I will most likely be taking the photo inside. If I situated the group in front of a large window, with the light behind me, do you think that would be enough light? Should I keep it on Auto mode and use f/8? I will, of course, experiment a bit, but I really need to have a place to start.

So I have taken hundreds of photos since I got my camera. Tomorrow I have to take a group photo of family members and I am still not sure how to get a great one. I havent purchased any equipment at all. All I have is my 18-55mm lens that came with the camera. Also, I have only been using the Auto mode. Can I get some suggestions on how to take a decent group photo with what I have?

I clicked on the link you provided and all I see is a blank entry form. I know I saved it and would like you to look it up if possible. What information do you need from me to look it up? Thanks.

I love to take photos, of people. So my boyfriend went out and bought me my first camera, the Pentax k-r. How do I go from taking family photos with a regular point and shoot to using the k-r and taking amazing photos of people like I want to do. I have done some reading and have read that the most important piece is the lens. But different lenses take different kinds of photos. What kind of lens do I need to take the best photos of people? Is the lens that comes with the camera enough? I suspect it is not. I am such an amateur, but I want this to become something that I will excel in. Thanks for any advice.
