Hi all,

New to the forums and new to photography. :)

I recently got a SS A70 for a trip we took and now I think I have the photo bug.

I've been practicing with the dog in various locations. This shot is at the local high school football field.

Thanks for taking a look - any advice or constructive crits are welcome.

Welcome to the froum.

I really like it - great capture of some action.

Only advice - use a bath to clean your dog!! :D

Ha! Thanks for that! :lol:

Here's another shot I thought was cool - as far as "action" goes.

I'm not really satisfied with the color with the A70 - I know it's a cheap camera - I don't know if I should spend the time to learn how to tweak the best shots from it or to invest in a better camera and spend the learning time there...:confused:

Thanks for the nice comment. :)

Welcome to the forum Daf :) .

A dreaded illness indeed. Most never recover and as the bug wears on it takes more expensive medication to relieve the symptoms ;) .
Take heart though, you are in good company here.

Lovely dog and photos.

Thanks for the advice dewmuw - I completely understand what you mean. :)

Solo175 - thank you for the nice comments! :)

I know ... my wife rolled her eyes when I expressed a desire to take some shots after the trip. She is all to aware of how my "hobbies" go as far as "needing" this and that. :lol:

Thanks again for the welcome!

Love that first sprinkler shot!
Well captured.

I suggest tweaking the images untill you truly grow out of the camera, then you will appriciate tan upgrade more :)
