Experiments

I don't know why is it that I think I can pick up a piece of equipment and think I can just feel around in the dark and eventually know how to use it. I just can't stand reading manuals I suppose. That kind of attitude might work for simple tools but definitely not a camaera.
No manual yet though. I finally got around to reading Jodie Coston's free online photography course. Baby steps.

So now, I know the basics of working the manual settings of my camera, I won't have any trouble with grain and motion blur. (hopefully)

Some before and afters

So grainy and bad lighting too
and lots of photoshop

Much smoother
only resized image and colour balance for the blue
:D
Composition is still pretty bad hehe

Got my macro filter this morning! Going to try it out today.
The F717 is not a dSLR so can only play with filters for now, which I'm fine with until I get more familiar with photography :)

Excellent! I really want to improve my photography skills, and like you want to master the manual settings on my camera. Is this the course you mean?

I'm going to have a read through it too. Cheers!
