I went camping for the weekend and natually took my camera along. It's a Nikon FE and i'm only just getting into the whole photo scene. Anyway i shot about 60 photos and selected a few to show here.

The first 2 pictures were shots of a rainbow lorekeet in a tree, although it was shot against the sky they actually worked out quite nicely, but my crappy scanner kind of dulled the colors a bit.

This photo was also butchered by my scanner it acutally has a beautiful yellow hue which was lost in the scan.

Once again same yellow hue, same crappy scanner!

This image was darkened in photoshop since it lost it's contrast during scanning, and the clouds were washed out. It was taken out of a car window so i was pleasently surprised. And a grand storm it was.

Once again lots of yellow was lost. I've never really photographed against the sun, and i don't have a light metre the camera's autoexposure did the trick.

This photo hardly did the sky justice. It's no where near as purple as it actually was. Pity. The original is slightly lighter (it's possible to pick 3 cows in the field).

Again color is off but it looked good to me. The tree in the right was an accident since i was just trying to take the picture while it was still there. I didn't have any time to set it up properly. But it worked out quite well. (also the black corners are my lens hitting the edge of a pole filter).
What do you think? And be critical i'm learning :
