I too was trying to figure out my camera settings with some sunset shots yesterday, I'm not of Ripy's level, but some came out pretty good.

Anyway, some outdoor shots for the ones still stuck in their cubicals.

I'm honored but I'm no where near good yet! I consider myself okay with sports, but everything else I'm average.

Nice clarity. If you want a bit of advice, use the 1/3rd rule.

Rip-n-pasted:


The rule of thirds is the most basic composition rule in photography. It means, essentially, that you should imagine lines going through the frame at 1/3 and 2/3 of the way through. This can be horizontally, vertically, or both.Just imagine these crosshairs on your viewfinder, and try to line things up with the lines or fill up each successive section with a different, interesting thing. Often, it's better to fill up just 1/3 of the image with one thing and 2/3 with something else.


So essentially, when taking pics of sunsets or horizons, get mostly sky or mostly land, never split a photo down the middle with the horizon.

The one of the girl jumping is fantastic. Could easily be a poster. Think of some uplifting saying like "I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now" and print it to right = dorm rooms all over the nation.
