Hello! New here...

[LongDucDong]

Hello! Im Steve from Illinois, just recently got into photography (a little over a year ago), still learning alot. I currently have a Kodak EasyShare Z700, thats it. Its not a great camera, but it takes decent macros and has been as reliable as the air I breathe. Im just posting some pics Ive taken recently, all uploaded from Photobucket, so alot of the quality has been lost.

If you cant tell, I enjoy shooting nature most, also cityscapes and landscapes. I dont have too much of the latter, but hopefully more trips to Chicago will change that. Thanks for looking!

Thats it for now.

Hi LongDucDong, and welcome to ThePhotoForum.
Now these are very, very many first photo. Wow.
And not one of them bad!
You sure have "the eye", that much is very obvious.

Since you posted so many photo but did not number them, it is now hard to say: I like # so-and-so best because...

... so I must say that I find thay all look good, maybe I best like the one of the light streaming onto the amboss and hammer in that workshop ... yes, all other's don't worry: that one is top of my personal list IMMEDIATELY followed by all the green grasshopper and mantis close-ups!!

LongDucDong. These pictures are superb and all look very professional. You have obviously devoted a lot of your time to developing a 'technique' and it appears that you have pretty much mastered the craft. The 2nd picture is the best of the lot in my opinion, but that has to do with my own preference for pictures of old decrepit buildings. Very well done!

In number 8, is that a Brown Recluse? If it is you are one brave soul... Black Widows, Brown Recluses, and camel spiders are some of the few type of bugs the freak me out. The Praying Mantis pics are AWESOME!!!!!

When I saw your 1st picture, I thought sh..t again car picture... I was about to leave the post without seeing the rest.
You have amazing pictures, I specialy like the one with the hamer, the old car, the city with the lights and the bus passing.
Congratulation, I really like your picture & style
