I've been practicing and think I've gotten better. Just not much time. I also need to get some lights and a photo box. I might try to make the box as the prices are steep.

BTW My camera is a Sony a200... If that helps. :ugdance:

Very beautiful and right on the spot! It's a matter of time until someone hires you to photograph their products. 8-) I could be this "someone" if I didn't have Melania's (my wife) amazing eye behind the camera.

Your latest pics are pretty dark and dramatic. You're not going through an emo phase, are you? :lol:

Hahaha well not emo phase, its more of a "ive-graduated-so-i-have-a-job-now-phase" so i dont quite have as much time in the day to attempt different things, its mostly experimenting things at night, hence the dark and dramatic look =) Ill try to mix it up a little =D

I took the time to click through all of the pages in this thread and I must say Kai, your talent is growing by leaps and bounds. This is one of my favorite threads.

Time is a funny thing, isn't it? So many people spend their lives trying to get more money when time is infinitely more valuable.
