Too right.
I don't think I have yet taken a decent picture and that delete button is starting to wear out.
I love the fact that I can just click away for free.

I have taken three pictures here for you to judge.
I know they will be bad but I need to start somewhere and hopefully this is a fair starting place.
I don't care what comments you make as I really do know nothing about this hobby.

I used 'him' as my subject as he doesn't seem to move a great deal.

The first one was with Flash ON the next two are Flash OFF. (I prefer Flash OFF).

Ones with flash are better mate..it gives you that "catchlight" in the eye too whereas one without makes it hard to see the eye..I would say focus is slightly off on all but this could be down to camera shake or slow shutter speeds..

Thanks Stu. Now you say about the 'eyes' I can see the difference.
It was probably camera wobble on the focus.
Thanks again. I think I will seek out a local class or club. Just frightened how much expensive equipment everyone else there will own. And then me with just me one lens. Still, I have to start somewhere.

Exactly mate and it will also give you a chance to try out other peoples kit and see what works best for you.
