afternoon

I treated myself to a 450D last week, iv been learning bits and bobs while looking for the camera i wanted. So, just wanted a quick CC on a couple of pictures and point me in the right direction where I can learn how to use it properly.

Iv only cropped and slightly played with the colour in both pictures.

Cheers guys

what lens have you got?
what settings did you use for each pic?

I got the Canon 18-55mm IS lens and Tamron 70-300mm, f4-5.6 DI lens (literally copied and pasted from jessops)

First one:
Tamron lens
192mm
1/200 sec @ f5
ISO 200

Second one:
On canon lens
18mm
1/200 sec @ f3.5
ISO 400

Hope that helps mate

i love the first photo. you have done really well as you've knocked the background out of focus so the bird stands out
