FINALLY bought a new tripod for better pics, 56K you know the drill
Well I decided to buy a tripod and take some pictures with good backgrounds, I am getting better but no where near great. Comment welcome.
ps: this is a little dirty, it snowed and didnt wash car.
EDIT: MORE PICS on PAGE 2.......please read.
Edit: I also just purchased a new front lip from a 94 ex, soon to be on.
First one is my favorite:
Thank you guys
And yes I am a picture/post *****.

You're shooting these extremely hard to look at angles. Take more like this one as it is easier on the eye.
As for this photo... There is too much crap going on. It's hard to focus. I blurred the background in photoshop to try to give it more of a focus. On your digital camera, perhaps try manual focus to get this effect.

Isn't there something else to do when taking the pic, to blur the background, like lowering the f-stop? Is that what I'm thinking of? Like a higher f-stop would be a landscape style pic, and a lower f-stop would be a portrait style photo?
Anyway, the pics are a whole lot better than what I could do...so props to you! And nice Accord!

I am definately still learing.....keep the comments coming. And your right blurring the background definately helped.

You are correct. Adjusting the f-stop will lengthen or shorten your depth of field (DOF), either bringing the foreground or the background into focus.

Re: FINALLY bought a new tripod for better pics, 56K you know the drill (ebelp)
My camera is the Olympus D-550.....I am still learning the features and the instruction manual is gey, I finally learned how to adjust film type/speed, and do close ups. What is the f-stop and how would I adjust it so where the picture comes like that naturally instead of via PS?

Yea denver is great, tons of stuff to do, when you visit hit a honky up and the scenery is awesome just cluttered (not all that great for pics), and when you visit bring the beast y0.
As far as the angles, after looking at it, they need to be a little less angled. Keep em coming guys.
