    Newbie from Telford - Canon 550D

    Hi Everyone!

    Thanks for taking the time to have a look at my thread! I am a newbie to Photography so please bare with me.

    I have recently purchased the CANON EOS 550D with the 18-135 lens

    I believe that memories are the most valuable things of life, and photo's are one of the most important aspects of reliving them memories...

    I have always had a keen eye for detail and now, I feel it is the time to share what my eye is able to see when looking through that viewfinder.

    I am an open minded photographer and willing to give anything a "shot" .

    Here's my facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/jamierickettsphotography

    Take a look at let me know your thoughts :)

    Thanks again!

    Hi Jamie and welcome, looks like you have a very good eye for a shot and that is always the sign of a good photographer. Personally for me you have a few too many 'selective colour' shots, occasionally they can work well but have been done to death BUT saying that - if you like them then that really is all that matters.

      I was just having a play around yesterda (03.01.12) and I have to admit I got carried away... I am more of a natural picture kinda guy, not a huge fane of editing, but thank you for your comment!

            Hi Jamie, enjoy the forum and the taking of images
            The camera works just fine, it's the idiot staring through the viewfinder that need's help!

                Hi Jamie, a welcome from another newbie :-) I totally agree with you that photo's bring memories back.

                I am not a big fan of picture manipulation either - but some of your photos look really interesting and I think isolating colors (used causiously and well considered), can be used to isolate the important part of a picture.

                Has the topic "photo manipulation" ever been discussed in this forum? Perhaps an interesting thread to start!!!

                  That is a really good way of putting it. Used causioudly is something I would have to agree with you there. Will bare this in mind in future :).

                  Photos are a memory, also capture moments that you may never get back - This is how I see Photography but with a twist of beauty!
