Hi. I just registered to the website, and it seems really cool!
I have been taking photos for about 6 months now and its really cool. I am getting into it enough where I thought it would be cool to do it as a profession. I know, I know, its SUPER TOUGH, but I'm not putting all of my eggs in it either. I want to get better, and don't know how, but thought you guys would know what steps to take with how to make my photos better and also get them published. There's a newspaper here that doesn't have a photographer (small paper doesn't have the money to pay for one). Would it be a good idea to do free work for them (if they want it)?
Here's some photos I've made in the last few months...

All of these photos were spur of the moment. I have a Panasonic Lumix camera (no DSLR, sigh), and I don't use photoshop. I just point, click and save (and for internet purposes, resize). I don't know if I know any other pertinent info for you to know, but if you ask, I'll tell you
Anyway, if anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it. Also, if someone could tell me some steps in the right direction to pursue this as a career, that'd be cool too!
