New guy in Gainesville FL

[extrapolator]

Hi all. I've been taking pics for quite a few years, and they turn out "OK", but I'd like to take better ones; my pics tend to lack depth and clarity. And now a motorcycle riding friend of a motorcycle riding friend is a pro photog, so that's increased my desire to improve.

My camera is a Canon PowerShot G15, just because I wanted the best camera I could get that would still fit in my pocket; at the time of purchase this one seemed to be it. I'm into it enough now that I'm willing to drag along some larger equipment.

Here are a couple pretty representative shots of how my pics turn out:

Biggest problem I see is your point of view....all from eye level. Get down lower for these types. Maybe frame tighter?
