I’d prefer the uncropped version if I’m honest.
Lovely shot.

Thanks for all the help guys,we had an amazing time in Vegas and New York.
I took well over 400 photos,but as I’m only a beginner not all were great,some might say none of them are any good :(
Sure I may as well bite the bullet and show you some of them,I don’t mind honest critique at all,just no one look down on me as Im only a novice!
All are handheld as I didn’t have time to buy a tripod.

MMX if it’s ok with you I would rather if you stopped offering your advice to me.
I came on here to learn from people who are more advanced than I on this particular hobby,and while you do obviously know more than I do about photography,I don’t like the way you “speak” down to other posters on here,so while you might be more skilled in photography your people skills are lacking big time.

So as I said I would prefer if you didn’t reply to any questions I may ask,because I do intend to ask several more over the coming months as I learn how to use my DSLR.

The Fine Point,thanks for your help and I look forward to conversing with you in the future.

Thanks Fine Point.
I didn’t mean I don’t want to use a tripod ever! I just meant for this particular trip I didn’t want to be lugging one around the streets of NY or Las Vegas.
I hope to do a course on photography when I get home from honeymoon and become one of those more dedicated folk that you speak of :)

oops, mild stroke I guess….must have been thinking Nikon….still, Vegas would have been fine w/o tripod in your case :)
How was the honeymoon…got photos (of Vegas, I mean) ?

Haven’t gone yet! Going on Sept 14th..

Just another question fellas.I have been trying to get tips on taking hand held photos night photos with my DSLR when in Vegas/New York.
Everywhere I read though the first tip they give is USE A TRIPOD! I don’t want to be carrying a tripod with me so how do I take decent night shots of cityscapes in NY and Las Vegas.

Thanks

Hiya shutterbug thanks for the reply.

I have no idea what type of pictures I eventually want to shoot,to be honest I would reckon I would be into everything,its sort of the personality I have,not sure if thats a good or bad thing but every hobby I take up I always want to learn everything about it and be capable of doing it to a decent standard.

Thing with me is though I get addicted very easily,I know I will spend hours now with my first DSLR learning everything about it,I have even been buying DSLR magazines for the past 3 months and I only bought the camera today!

I haven’t the money to buy a range of lenses though so might just get one or two to start with,I am getting married in 6 weeks :sick and will be going to New York/Las Vegas/California on honeymoon so would really like something that will be good for taking shots in these locations,any suggestions?
