So i am playing around with my new toy Canon Rebel XSi Also known as Canon EOS 450D, i will try to mention the Shutter speed and the fNumber on each image as my camera records that information, but sadly not the ISO so i will try to make a note in the future to also include the iso, but hey that leaves only 1 variable for you to guess. i don't have a pro lens yet i am using the one that is a kit with the camera (18-55).
TITLE: WORK PLACE- enjoy !!
1/125 Shutter Speed F=3.5 No Flash
1/640 Shutter Speed F=5.6 No Flash
C&C Would be nice but most importantly give your true honest opinion ^_^ (took them at 2oclock around my office the guy is a coworker)

glad to see you're starting to play with your new toy!
by thanking me, you're actualy thanking simply cg, i used to take pictures before, but since the macro challenge, i got crazy into it...
now about your shots, i won't crit at all, because if i do it will kill your creativity, and you won't be able to develop a style of your own... on top of that, who am i to crit somebody else's work? i don't have the right qualifications to do that...
that being said, why are you shooting in black and white? you must have awsome colors there, maybe you could try taking full advantage of that...
personaly, i prefer to shoot in colour. i only use black and white when i consider the photograph to be grafic enough that it doesn't need colors any more.
so you call theses workplace?
what ever people will say, just keep shooting and take their crits into acount, but keep in mind that it's their point of view... not yours... so even if you're pictures might not be as good as you would like them to be, don't worry, it'll come, as for now keep shooting! i'll see if i have time to put up a photography challenge...

thanks rich to be honest i love those pics even if people don't, and as you said i take comments to improve my self, but seems like people in this forum refrain from negative ones or sugar coat them, i don't like that i like honesty even if it hurts otherwise how would i learn more.

much better!
for the first one, you could have been at f5, and for the second one at f7 focusing at the number at the bottom of the page... last one is blured.. do NOT use any of the automatic features... use av, tv or m, but nothing else! you don't want the camera to control anything for you, it's crap at guessing!
i'l stop crits now... get shooting...
