First pictures

[unknowz]

So I got a new camera for Christmas, a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28. Last year I got my tablet and I decided to give photography a try this year.

 

Here are 3 pics I took at the family reunion. Unfortunately I was inside so couldn't take landscape pictures, and what I took mostly are pics of people, but not posting these here. Oh well, tell me what you think.

Number 1 is definently the best. Very original and good composition. Here's some overall feedback:

 

 

 

1. Original, good focus, and placement on the ribbon.

 

2. I don't know what it is, it looks quite ugly :-X

 

3. Not focused entirely on the necklace. The front is blurred, where it should be the other way around, front not blurred, going to a blur.

 

Is your camera a D-SLR? Or normal? Learn the manual feature of your camera better, you will end up with better picture that way.

 

And resize your picture, I tend to do mine at 900 Pixels wide, so that your screen isn't stretched too bad.

Nah it's not a SLR. I've figured since I don't know anything about photography I'll pick a versatile camera.

 

I'll definitely be reading the [quite big] manual in the following days.

 

 

 

Pictures were resized. Originals were like 3500 by 2500 or something.

That looks like quite a good camera you have chosen, although you could have got a basic DLSR, like a Sony a200, for the same amount of money, but that should be fine for you :) And resize it even further.
