    Wow! That's some really fantastic stuff you have going MPCoyote!

    My favorite by far is "Let Me Fly". It is framed almost perfectly in my opinion, and really seems to capture the moment just before the plunge. I really, really like it ;) I also like the colors in "Sun Searching".

    How are you liking your Rebel XTi so far? I actually got myself the exact same camera just over a year ago (with a wide angle lens, and zoom lens later on), and I can't get over it! It's the perfect camera for so many people in my opinion (quality and price wise).

    Keep it up mate! I'd love to see more!

    I personally didn't like any of the Black and White ones, they seemed too.. flat? I loved the color ones though.

    @ Tyler Durden - Thanks mate =)

    @ TheLegget - Thanks for that, and I absolutely LOVE my XTi, I only have the EFS18-55mm and EFS75-300mm lenses but they are doing the job just fine =) I couldn't of asked for a better first DSLR.

    @MikeWilson - Hmmm =( those were some of my favorites but I do get what you mean. Any suggestions on how to keep them from being "flat"?

    Contrast, It only looks to be about a 10% white - 80% black so all the elements look like they are all the same distance from the camera. Taking a second look I like the kid on the boat, thats really nice. But the other two could use a levels adjustment. And there doesn't seem to be a dominant subject in either so the eye doesn't know where to go.

    Hmmm I get what you mean thanks =) I'll try to work on that in the future

    Are you shooting those with the kit lens? 18-55mm. You have great composition on the Let me fly picture. The DOF is amazing if your only using the kit lens.

    Are you a member of POTN forums by chance?

    EDIT: I just read your reply to TheLegget. I see your using the 18-55 kit lens. Great use of that lens! You will notice the 300mm lens will drop off when its wide open. The images will seem pixelated when at high res. When you have enough money saved up I highly recommend getting a 50mm 1.4 or 1.8 lens. They call it the nifty fifty. It will be the best lens you ever used in your life until you pick up an L or somthing haha. I got my first published photo using the 50mm 1.4 and man was it exciting! If you would like to see the photo I'd be glad to share it with you.

    Thank you very much for that =) though I don't think using the stock lens is that amazing lol. I'll definitively keep the "nifty fifty" in mind since I'm not very familiar with many lenses =) And as for that photo I'd love to see it. I guess not since I dunno what POTN stands for =S lol
