  1. Lots of missing info....too much in fact fro anyone to give you an answer. First thing up though is you have to remember where that noise is generated. It is in the camera, more specifically the sensor. The sensor is an electronic device and so has energy applied at all times. this creates a certain level of heat which in turn causes spurious bursts of energy. It is latent, always there at a very low level. So when you have lots of light striking the sensor then the noise is drowned out since it resides only in the dark regions. Different sensors have differing sensitivities to light. the more sensitive they are the less noise appears because the sensor is grabbing that incoming light energy and over-riding the background levels....you pay more....much more the more sensitive your sensor is. So the sensor sets the inherent noise levels and sensitivity, noise is in the dark regions of the picture. too drop the noise in the picture you must increase the total amount of light absorbed. This means longer shutter times, wider apertures. Which in turn gives you less and less leeway against motion blur and ever decreasing DoF.s. That is a very mumbled explanation and if someone wants to jusmp in and correct or clarify please do so!
  2. I presumed you used a filter to create the sun rays.   It looks phoney and completely detracts from an otherwise rather nice shot.
  3. <p>I suspect what you are seeing is the TTL exposure flash (the first one). Set your flash to manual mode. Also double check that you actually have set your 2d curtain flash on the camera (not part of your problem, just a reminder to double check everything).</p>

    Your horizon line is way off, and you still haven't learned to adj the white balnce for artificial lighting. You are not progressing Maria, you keep repeating the same mistakes over and over. I will not wste more time on critiquing your photos.
  5. <p>The closest thing to a universal lens for portrait/group shooting is the 24-105mm lens. More successful pros use that lens than any other. read their interviews, blogs, books whatever...that is THE mandatory lens. All others can be added later.</p>
  6. Well one thing is for certain...he is NO cowboy. You were scammed. He is wearing a Panama, and no cowboys were those. Born and raised in the West, even had my own cattle once, so I oughta know. Good shot though! ;)

    That overly dark 'Superman' kills the shot completely. The figure IS the subject when combined with the signage. Definitely worth a re-do, or a post fix.

    A polarizer, and good WB would do wonders. ;)

    Okay, I gather this is available light only. What I would have done is have the player twist slightly to his left (camera right) so that some of that light that is hitting his hip would illuminate the head and neck of the guitar.

    Like the shot, mood, etc. BUT you are perilously close to cropping at an elbow. If you took off a little from the bottom this would fix that, and improve the aspect ration at the same time.

    Maria, Again the reflections! You must figure out a way to avoid them. Otherwise all these doll house photos are barely decent snapshots.
