Geeeez, did you take those pics yourself? You have got talent sir, and this is coming from a professional photographer. If that was you, what camera did you use?

Your best: Guitar, Sailors Delight, Sunset on the Amazon, and Makes Me Hungry.

And may I just say that while sometimes your cropping could use some work, your innate talent with positioning objects so as to receive the best light is incredible. I've been taking all sorts of indoor/outdoor shots for a decade now, positioning items and subjects to try and bring the light out best, but even I don't often get shots like some of those you took.

Also, it looks like you definitely travel a lot. Where were some of those taken? I'm somewhat of a traveler myself and it's always nice to find someone who shares a passion for the world and capturing it on camera.

Wow. Thanks. That actually means a lot to me. I just consider myself as an amateur photographer, basically just a side hobby.

As far as traveling goes, I went to Peru for a week, and took a bunch of pictures with my old (now broken) Canon Powershot a560 (I think) But, halfway through the trip, I hit 'Format' not knowing what it would do. Lost ~300 pictures. :(
I also took a trip to D.C. for an 8th grade 'field trip'. That's where I took "Makes Me Hungry".
The rest were taken up at my cabin (Sailor's Delight, Leaf, Weight Limit) or at home (Guitar, Emptyness)

:lol: Yeah not knowing what "format" does is definitely an amateur mistake, so I'll rib you there. But hey, you've got the talent to really become a quality photographer in the future. I'd recommend getting an SLR camera in the future, either Canon or Nikon doesn't matter, they both make excellent excellent SLR cameras. They're expensive though, so it's something to save up for. I'm currently using my old Nikon D-40, which is not one I'd recommend as it's far too basic and the quality is so-so, but it does produce some fairly nice pics on occasion.

Peru eh? Damn I'd love to go there. Did you visit Machu Pichu? The closest I've been to a rain forest was Costa Rica in 2001, which was epic no doubt, but it's kids-stuff compared to the jungles of Peru.

Nope. And sadly I didn't go there either bwp.

Once I get a job I plan on saving up a bit for a nice camera.

Agreed. Don't title your pics, it never works.

I actually really like your titles.
