Most pictures will be taken by Ipod and others by my dads camera.

There is honestly nothing interesting in any of these photos, like how is a fruit tree in front of a trampoline interesting haha.

Get out of your yard/house and go out take some interesting subjects because honestly every photograph in this thread are boring. The second shot that is edited actually looks decent but it would have been nice if you captured it like that without editing it to make it look way more dramatic than it actually was. Go out in the early morning or late afternoon when the light is nice and golden and experiment with different compositions around the trees. That's a good starting point.

You need to shoot some interesting subjects, in some interesting light. It looks like all the new ones were shot with quite flat lighting.

Take your dog out into a great spot at a sunrise or sunset as that is always a great time to shoot. The light is very photogenic. Photography is all about the light. You are better to have a boring subject and beautiful light than to have an an amazing subject in shitty light.

This video provides some good tips on photography. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4HbWhri7Tc

oh my, where do I start? First, do not use an IPOD to take your photos and call yourself a "photographer" or atleast do not announce that they will be taken with an iPod. Secondly, get out of your yard. I have quite the yard myself and I have never got 1 interesting photo. Thirdly, do not take pictures of flowers. This is a sterotype for amateur photographers and if you show up with tons of flower pictures it reflects poorly on your skill level unless you had a really nice macro lens (not an iPhone macro lens). Lastly, when your first starting out, try to get settings perfect instead of editing them all the time. It will make your pictures cleaner, it will teach you to be patient and it will overall make your photos much better.

You didn't really edit anything. You just put things in & out of focus. I'm not an expert photographer, but you have to have something unique about stuff you shoot. Like blake's photo thread I would scroll for days because there is always something new. It's just all the same, mix it up.

You dont necessarily have to have a bunch of everything. Photographers do have their own specific style. I personally like to experiement with many different styles.
