Thumbs up DB Photography Thread!!!

So there are quite a few of us that enjoy photography, whether it be cars or not. Let's all post up and see if we can learn something from each other.

I'll post one for now, it's of my doggie's paws of when she was sleeping the other night. Very minor tweaking.


Canon Rebel XT
Kit Lens (18-55mm)

When I get some time I was thinking of doing a little write up of how to properly take before/ after pictures of paint correction. Would anyone be interested in this?

P1et gorgeous picture buddy, I too need to learn about how to take a better picture.

D&D I'm very interested on a write up like that

The pictures I take I just point and shoot and sometimes I get lucky sometimes I don't it would be nice to be able to know what to do and how to adjust/compensate certain scenarios.

The price of DSLR cameras has come down so much now and are so user-friendly that there is no excuse for anyone not to own one.

Personally, I have the Rebel XT and then a Canon SD1000 to just carry around with me in pocket.

I got a question, when you said you edited what exactly did you do...oh th epictuers look nice, your friend is very photogenic. I like how the colors on the last two seem to stand out

Thanks for sharing.

I'm always amazed by Scott's photos, he's got some great skills.

Thinking about a new lens for Christmas myself!!!
