How are we meant to saw like an eagle when we are working with DODO’s?

If there is one thing I know how to do well its being a complete TW@T!!

Hi Griff,

I like the sun's reflection on the clouds best.

If I can offer an opinion?

Picture one could live with the top third cropped off and both sunsets would look great..if it wasn't for the roofs in the way.
But then, it'd be taking things too far to knock a few houses down for the sunset...or would it
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Griff Remember one thing, we were all beginners at one time. I am doing sports photography on a semi-pro basis and I still have a lot to learn, and always will. There are some rules of photography whicg are considered essential in great photographs, but they are just guied lines. Be true to yourself and never stop learning.
