Thanks Rubber_Duck! How can you be new too? You've been a member since 2004 and you have so many posts! You're humble lah.. I'm a true newbie, with no DSLR experience (and little Photoshop experience), but have always loved capturing moments and scenes, freezing moments in photos I've been truly inspired by the works I see here on CS, and hence decided to put up my modest works to seek comments as well as make myself shoot more.

I really hope to be able to improve, but I know it will take time. So hopefully I will take better pictures with more experience!

And regarding overexposure on the pics from my floral shots, I guess I did recognise that, but at the same time, with no additional lighting (other than natural light) for what I wanted to capture, I couldn't get my subject brightly lit unless the exposure was that high (and hence background becomes overexposed). I personally feel that a white background for these photos is ok. I actually am clueless as to whether photos must always not be overexposed in any areas - is this the case?

As for composition, I do always think about what I want to capture or portray before I take a shot! So I was still quite satisfied with these photos that are posted here. Are these photos considered not well composed in your opinion?

Thanks for the feedback though! Appreciate it!

Member since 2004 doesn't mean that, I started DSLR..
But actually I just started last yrs.... b4 that I using P&S... :sweatsm:

Everyone has their own preference and ways of express themselves..
If you feel you like it... then don't bother about other ppl suggestion and advice.
just follow your own styles....this is also unique to your own works.....

Just shot and post more......as long you like it..
that is the most important for yourself. ... right..!!??!?!?!:angel:

Hahaha, I see! I've seen some of your photos - many of them are good! And I do want to seek advice and comments from others so that I can see if it's just me feeling that way (I should then learn and adapt ), or whether other people have different opinions. But I will take note of the exposure issue from now on, thanks so much!

I will continue to shoot and post more, thanks so much for the encouragement! I will attempt to post some pics of Boston (where I am now) under the Travels/Landscapes gallery soon. Do drop by if you have the time, and let me know what you think!

Have been missing home quite a bit lately... If only there was a teleportation machine that I could just jump into and bring me to places in an instant...
