[My first digital photography]

I`m always looking for interesting, stunning, unusual, or even bizarre photographs or art on the web, and over the last few months Ive found a bit of everything.

 

Found a lot of HRGiger type art, and lots of good pics on sites like rridgelys recent Cool Pics thread.

 

For a change, I thought I would post a few of my own that I took back in July last year, shortly after buying my first digital camera. I was looking after my sons two dogs at the time.

 

All of the pics were taken using the macro close up mode, and they show the detail and clarity you can get with an average Compact Digital Camera.

 

The first two are taken in his garden. Second two are something else entirely.

 

This thing jumped across the kitchen bench in front of me, and I nearly had a heart attack, I managed to catch it under a pint glass, which gives you an idea of it`s size. But apart from being scary, it`s actually stunning to look at.

 

For the nature lovers out there, I released it alive at the bottom of his garden.

I hope you like them, and have a look at the detail in full size, especially of the thing in the pint glass.

 

I know what it is, but don`t want to spoil the surprise.

The photo's are very good-what camera did you use? And can you help me regarding a scan?

I'm a newbie and I've just down loaded CC and ran a scan; it found 228 mb to be cleaned. Almost every box was checked off for scanning (the default scan). I'm to scared to delete files, though very tempted. Should I have unchecked certain boxes like the windows files? Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

 

PS I"m new to posting too, would I find a response in my inbox or right here? Sorry!
