Hey guys,Im in Dubai , U.A.E and Im really happy that I came across this forum, I must say Iv already learned alot about framing and photo ideas already just by going through a few threads here.. I am very new to photography and almost a week ago I purchased a Canon 450D with the 18-55 lens. I purchased an additional Sigma 70-300 (non APO) for about 120US$ and a Slik Tripod for 80$ so a bit of something to get me going on.. ok enough talking and Im sorry if I have posted this in a wrong place coz I couldnt find newb section :) anyways here are a few shots that I did and I hope u guys enjoy and give me feedback ...
