Wow...they are amazing photos....

There's something about this photo that I love - it's probably the way the light falls on the cobblestones...

Lots of very good work there. I think a few of those you've posted before on Vortex, but it's nice to see them all. Good stuff. Make me wish I had some East Coast scenery around here in the warm weather.

I recently bought a Rebel XT (standard lens), but am thinking of buying some more. Got any tips/tricks in taking these? Or good sites with some pointers?

Thanks!

phil.

Spectacular photos. You have an eye for lighting that I wish I had!
I think I like the boat pic the best.

XT is a great camera the one i wish i bough, if you get better glass for it you will really see how good that camera is, the kit lens is not good at all, it covers up the ability of the camera sensor.

Tips:: Take your time, Get photoshop and make it your digital dark room because everything you want to ever fix in a photo can be done using that program. Get a UV filter for the lens to protect it and just do a lot of experimenting. What makes a good shot in my opinion is the location and lighting.

That quote doesn't speak specifically on all aspects of a good photo, but you need light in order to even take a photo. I just fell asleep during this post, I shoudl go to sleep..
