I don't. I mean I think I opened one up just to share some pics I took at a friend's daughter's birthday party like 5 years ago. But those pics sucked and I never added anything else in there. Probably forgot my login.

I'm not nearly as good as some of the people in that other photography thread.

with experience you get better, i remember at first i didn't even know how to post process, adjust shutter, different lenses.

I'm not as great as dudes like @spinoza etc. but i'm learning, at least i can post process now

You have some nice shots. Really great sharpness in some of them.
Looks like you shot a lot in Cuba! That must've been a great trip.

Thanks, and
it was, went alone had the time of my life.

I actually only went because I wanted to take pictures :heh:

hope to go back next year

I've been thinking about picking up one of those third cams. Seems like a compliment to my full frame camera.
This is the 35 mm lens I use right here. It is straight up :ohlawd:

its so easy to carry, with my 14mm lens i can fit it in my pocket

damn that lens is serious :whoo:

thats one of the things i learned, when i bought my camera how pricey a good lens and the :noah: shots you can get with a great lens

You know what it is?
Not that it's any surprise, but I just get irritated at shooting 250 pictures and only liking 4 of them. That's what bothers me.

That, and the fact that when my family goes on vacation, I'm stuck taking pictures when I want to drink. And then I start shooting JPEG because I know I'm not gonna wanna sit and edit 600 pics shot in RAW from a 10 day trip

That's the fukkin thing tho
Sigma is great, but that Nikon version of that shyt must be like 2400 bucks.

I love Nikon glass but it's insane.

I'm almost ready to whore myself out to fat girls to buy that 24-70 2.8

Yep. But most feedback shows that the Sigma is very close to out performing the Nikon.
I had the 24-70. Great lens. But heavy as fukk.

Yeah I'm not even up to date on which websites do the best reviews.

I'd check out DP review and Photozone.de but It's been a long time...

I have to find out how to get the new Lightroom. Hell I need to learn how to use that program better. But I still have version 3.6 on my desktop. That's gotta be like 6 years old or something.

Trouble is, every time I download the trial, I can't ever find a good keygen that doesn't give me a virus.
