These were taken sometime in January. Yay, now I know how to upload them!




















There!
Tell me what you think of them. More coming soon.

Nice photos! I particularly like the ones of the building and the stones; on the first, the lighting is really cool, the way it plays with the shape of the building. I like the angle on the stone one. The rest are good too, but some could use a little work on the lighting (at least, it seems that way to me). The backyard sun is neat, but it's awfully bright, and seems to wash out the rest of the picture. *shrug* I dunno, maybe it's just me.

As for how you upload the pictures to the site, you're on the right track. When you upload the pictures to photobucket (or any picture-hosting site), there should be four boxes filled with text below it. Go to the one that says "IMG code", and then copy and paste it to the site here. That should work.

Aah alright, I'll try it with my next batch.

Thank you for the critique, I'll work on the lighting. I got a book on digital photography from the library, so I'll read that and take some more pictures on the next sunny day.

Here's a picture I drew of my little sister and a neighbor's baby

PS: Ignore the sideways-ness... I am a dumb idiot when it comes to computers



Nothing much to this one really... I was bored and the sun was shining and I happened to have a bottle full of water. I like the way the sun makes the landscape upside down in the bottle though.



My FEET! I took this in the car.



And a swan. This one is boring.

Wow...those are pretty good pics, in my opinion. However, I agree with whoever posted earlier, lighting needs work. It looks like you took most of those pictures in noon-day sun, that's never a good idea.

The swan? Boring? I beg to differ, its very nice.

The drawing of your little sister and the baby is very good. I think it takes a lot of talent to draw a baby or even just a little kid. The proportions are always different. The eyes were drawn very well too.

I like the water bottle concept as well. The landscape you can see through the bottle is the best part of it. Or maybe the water pouring out...Ah, I can't choose.

Very nice photos! I hope to see more soon.

Actually, all you need to do is change the [url] with [img] and you're good.

Photobucket even has an [img] link for you to copy.

[China Oolong]

No, Arthryn, I tried that and it didn't work, so I just went back to photobucket and edited my first post. It still looks best if you view it full though.

Nice work! I really like photos with grass, though it would be better without too much sunlight from one side.

and the swan looks very pretty!

[China Oolong]

I'm surprised people actually like the swan one. I was at a lake with my friends and I didn't do any framing or anything, I just zoomed in (we weren't close to the water) and took the photo.

Yeah, but it's not blurry, and it has a nice simplicity to it. It's actually very good. Oh, and on the one with the building you cut of the top of it, in the future you might wnat to be careful with that. Always try not to cut stuff of in pictures, it looks bad.

Very nice! I beg to differ with the lighting. Although it's usually a bad idea to take photographs in noon-day sunlight, it gives nice effects here. I really like the one in the grass.

What, the White Tower?
I didn't try to cut it off, I wasn't allowed to lie on the ground and take it like that (It probably would've worked that way) and when I backed off it looked wrong, also I was in the way of everyone else.

[China Oolong]

Rainy days are cool.

...except for when you get the camera soaking wet. Thankfully, I was taking these leaning out of the window, so it wasn't too bad.




A lovely... thing.





















These ones are boring. Even worse than the swan.

I loved the first pair. The rest are like the second one, but they have a nice idea.
