Give us a look at what you have done so far. if you have done nothing. go away and a picture and give us a look.

What kind of pictures do you like taking?

Welcome

AFAIK you have joined! You just can't "Thank" another post until you have a certain number of posts made.

Why not post some photos to get some feedback?

Will post up a few pics.... I like nature / outdoors etc.. but i have found myself in the situation of taking photos at small gigs.... these gigs have low lights... "green lights"!! 4/5 members of bands behind "mic's", movement... these are some of the issues i have come about... i am no professional, only learning... so any pointer / tips is hugely welcome....

I would prefer not to use a flash, i could be wrong but i feel the flash takes from the "mood lighting" and atmosphere in these particular settings...

Nope, comes up invalid. Like another poster said, upload them to flicker or pix, then link from there;)

Join Pix.ie! I'm in the same boat as you at the moment and Pix.ie gives you a code to copy and paste onto boards to embed a photo

Well done for posting.

I like the second (despite the crowd) and fifth photos best. The colour of them shows up well.

Hello and Welcome. I really like the third one, Black and white works well as does the depth of field

Welcome

I really like those photos, especially if you're just 'getting started'

Now, next step is to head over to Photographic Events & Projects forum, and get stuck in with some fun challenges.

Also, check out the Photobuddies Thread, What's happening and Places to go

Also, if you keep an eye on that sub forum, there are always meet-ups and Photowalks which are a lot of fun and educational
