Hallo. This will be where I'll post some of my shots. See the rest at my flickr page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/9383382@N05/).

My gear at the moment is a Canon Digital Rebel XT (just bought so figuring it out), Canon Powershot A540 (+ wide angle lens) and a Asahi Pentax K1000 35mm film slr. I do my post-processing in Photoshop.

Here are some of my favourites.

Taken with my Powershot:

Those are really cool...I like the chess one and the grass with water droplets, and the lego dude one is interesting (in a good way :lol:). The colors in the last one are awesome as well.

Some really awesome photography!! :D

I especially love the flowers (the colours are fantastic :)) and I particularly love all the close ups :D All your photos are just pure awesomeness :D

They look great.
I agree about the close ups, my own favourite is the one with the chess. Also the one with the head has interesting expression.

Very good!

I love the Dorrito's in the bag...I am hungry now. :lol:

The lighting and angles are done really well!

Thanks very much all :D

LOVEWEASELEYS04, they're kettle chips, not doritos ;) You did good guessing that they were crisps though, it confused lots of people...

Some new ones:

I love the shoes on the pavement! It all goes in one colour scheme and is really effective.

Thanks guys :D

It's about time I updated this. I just got myself a new lens for Christmas. I LOVE IT.

Here are the shots taken today with this new lens:

I really love the third and forth ones. It almost feels as if the figure is actually jumping. Great colors, too. I also really like the fire exit one. Something about it seems very arbitrary to me. And may I ask what book the person in the sweater is reading?

Thanks :)

I think the book may be a biography about Joe Strummer, the singer and guitarist for the Clash.

Woah, long time no update!

Hokay, so this one might be a big one. I'll only post small images to save your loading times, but seriously check out my flickr for all my latest stuff.

I've started using old manual lenses on my Rebel :D

Alfonzo--I love your photography, especially the close up pics with the water on the leaves and what not--do you take any photography classes? I have a new DSLR camera, and just getting used to taking more professional pictures, so any help would be appreciated!
