Starting Photography

by Andy
(Georgia )

I just got my Nikon D3000 for Christmas, I'm shooting with it as often as I can but I have not liked the results that much. I liked this one but I would like some other peoples input.

I think bracketing would help you get to know your camera better... bracketing is going up and down your F/stop (or shutter speed for that matter)
by the same amount starting at the cameras correct exposure for the desired stop and shutter speed.

Maybe stop it down one or speed up your shutter speed a click,composition is great but you want to separate your subject from the background a little, you can see where you lose information in the photograph on her left arm. The lighting looks middle of the day (maybe wrong) sky looks a little blown out. Early day or late afternon-evening is the best light in my opinion. Good job the D300 is a great camera I use it myself and I want another one!

Thanks for the comments, I will have to check that book out. For this shot I was just chasing her around the yard on program mode and just getting used to the camera, my wife thought it was too red too, I was trying to make it warm and bring out the wood color but I may have went too far. I hope I will have many more to post and get feedback on in the future.

Congrats on your new camera. You can't expect to take "great" photo's right off the bat. You need to read your manual and learn all your camera's functions.
Learn to shoot in manual mode, learn about compostion, exposure, metering, white balance, aperture, ISO, shutter speed and the rule of thirds.

I was always told learn the rules of photography and them break them.

I recommend buying the book "Understanding Exposure" by Bryon Peterson. This will help you immensley.

Cute pose. What are you shooting on. Manual or the auto settings. The color is to red for me. However with different computers screen res. it just may look that way.
