I've been lurking on this board for a while, but I'm ready to share my own pics now.

I took these pictures of my little lovebugs last night and I'd love some constructive comments and tips to better what I'm doing.

I don't want to put them on here directly because they're so big, so I'll just link you all.

Any ideas on other things I can do to get better pics or make the pics I took better? I'm planning on 'removing' the tag off the giraffe in one of the pictures a bit later as it's kind of an eyesore.

kathryn,

are those babies all yours? trips? wow.

my biggest suggestion w/o knowing your settings (ie...what camera, shutter speeds, apertures) would be composition. i saw a lot of centered photos...google "rule of thirds photography" and try to incorporate that...

beautiful kids!

if you could share your exif data i could give more feedback.

Sure, I can go through each one and let you know what the data on them was. I have it all written down in my notebook.

I'm really bad at centering pictures. lol. I know that it's really not that great to, but I'm just drawn to doing it.

I've got a Canon Rebel XT. These pics were shot with my 18-200mm lens with hood. No flash on any of them. I'll grab my data and brb
