Could i ask what you mean by this?

There's a tad bit of horizontal tilt and notice the slight bulge in the middle? The first distortion (tilt) is a function of getting the focal plane square with the subject and architecture shows this defect more than a portrait would. The second distortion is due to using a wide angle lens. Both of these issues can be fixed with lens correction tool in CS4 and 5 and other imaging tools.

MIndlessConsumer- You must be "5inchMAF" over on vortex, eh? I don't post much over there anymore, atleast not in Photo forum and just registered here today, but I'm
16vracer over there. Nice to see a familiar face over here anyway.

Is it because i wasnt dead in front of the center of the subject? Are you referring to how the stair "lift" a little on the right side? I hadnt really noticed that until now.

Wow, awesome shots. Are you sure you are a beginner with a DSLR?

I really like #3 and #8. Very good shots.

I think something just got on the lens for that shot, as it was the only one with that

#6 as well

I really love that Halloween shot. You have a wonderful eye for composition. Keep up the good work

These were all taken over my first 6 weeks.

Im at week 9 now. I feel like Im just right now getting a good idea of this is done. I feel like ive made progress even over just the last few weeks.

I also feel like Im slowly starting to hit a plateau

Like, when people ask me, "so, what kind of stuff do you shoot?", I really dont know how to answer. Most of my shots are just random.


Do you guys think they look "over-processed"?

If these are your first DSLR pictures than I chose the wrong hobby...
