Why the rolled eyes? I'm commenting on your shots, isn't that what you wanted?

Or can't you take negative feedback?

About the bent/sloping shots... it could be the shutter speed. Or the fact that the camera cant keep up with the movment of the train.

But its weird... your from train shots are more or less in focus... mine however are never..... so ateast there is one plus side to a camera that yours! :P

But as i say.... try fiddling with the shutter speed.. sounds stupid but if your not planning to go out and still want to practice take pictures of the cars that go past your house. say from a bedroom window.... or pictures of the planes that fly over your house.

Better still... dont take pictures of things that are moving, or whilst you're moving for that matter...
It's all about the sound!!! :) (Excluding unit's, electric's, kettles and for now 57's, 66's and 67's)

Damn, I wanted to go on that tour, but when I saw the add in a magazine it was too late for me to get time off work :-? :cry:

Better luck next time. And by the way, hope you dont take some of the comments on here to heart, some of your shots i think are pretty good!

Hope you had fun

Some nice shots there. Ad regards the commnets about shutter speed, my advice is to go digital. Most digital cameras will now find the optimum settings for your shot automatically, so you don't need to think about things like shutter speed anymore. Perfect for lazy photographers like myself! :D

It is a digital camera that you get in a box of cornflakes though.

Don't tell me you parted with money for it...
