thats too bad, definetly see it has the ability to be a nice looking house depending on its structural integrity

and looks like you must have a nice camera by the clarity of the pic

Use M mode..manual is quite easy once you get use to it...just adjust the aperature and shutter speed and get the line in the middle in the view finer (lack of knowing technical terms haha). Thanks for the comments guys will be working on some more shots soon.

Nice pics, i like the affect... only things that bothers me about #1 is the horizon is slightly tilted clockwise, and the peak of the roof is clipped.

#2 is almost perfectly symetrical which makes for a great image. Did you add any kind of burn/darkening around the edges of #2.

You have to adjust shutterspeed & aperature... go back and read the "how to expose" part of my photog thread & give it some more tries...

I have to say, these are probably your best 2 pics so far (that you have shown anyways..)

Sure didn't it just came out that when I put the border around it..I was using a program called "The Gimp" on those two pictures I like it...and I just got photo shop cs3 this evening, so my photos should get better and better.
