Couldn't find the new member section, so I'll introduce myself here, and post pictures for crtique.
Hello, I’m Katie from the DFW area in Texas. I have always enjoyed the art of photography, whether from others or pictures that I have taken. With that being said, I’m a complete amateur with a Rebel T1i.
In college I took a photography class, bought a film SLR, don’t ask what brand or model I have know idea. I bought it in 2006 for 500 dollars. I took the class and in the middle of the semester dropped it. Let’s just say young and dumb. Now, I want to get back into it.
I recently joined my local photography club, so plan on learning a lot with their trips and monthly meetings.
What am I planning on doing?
I train my Doberman in the sport of Agility. I go to competitions with lightening fast dogs that compete indoors with very awful low lighting. I also go to conformation shows that is a little slower paced but equally craptastic lighting.
My dog and I are really getting into the hiking hobby. We are always outside and I take pictures of nature with my point and shoot.
These were done yesterday at an agility fun match. No flash was used on any of these because of natural lighting. I didn't do much editing, straightening the walk and some contrast change. If anyone could tell me what I can do differently that would be great. With the cocker spaniel (black and white dog with the long ears) I wish the leash wasn't in the way, I think it's pretty distracting. And of the teacup poodle (last picture) it may be a little over-sharpened.
I have a Rebel T1i and I used a 55-250mm lens.
