First attempt at photography

Hi guys,

I've never really been into photography. It's something I enjoy but without a camera of my own I never get to pursue it as a hobby.

Anyway, I got bored the other day and got my dad's camera out. I took a photo of a bottle of 'fragrance'. Basically it's an experiment in still life.



Comments?

O love the lighting on this picture, it is awesome. I think you could be a great photographer if you pursue it.

Yes, the light is great!

looks verry good expecialy the shadows for a first atemp

Thanks for the comments guys

Pretty sweet man! I'm also just starting photography. Anyone have any pointers?

Disposables are just as good as digital SLRs.

I'd have to disagree with wildhoney on some parts of that

no review button! haha

the picture looks a little grainy for me at the bottom =/
other than that, it looks pretty cool! keep going at it

I agree with WildHoney.
Here are some quotes for you:

The camera doesn't make a bit of difference. All of them can record what you are seeing. But, you have to SEE."

Don't presume the most expensive gear is the best. Having too much camera equipment is the best way to get the worst photos.

Your equipment DOES NOT affect the quality of your image. The less time and effort you spend worrying about your equipment the more time and effort you can spend creating great images.
