Have spent most of my night reading through some books and playing about with the camera, now that morning has broken and lots of natural light abounds, it's time to get serious.
my first serious image:
I loaded the 400D onto my tripod, selected Aperture Priority mode and chose f/11, set the timed shot to go and waited for a stable image to be taken.
Things I know I need to improve:
*There needs to be more natural lighting on the crow, it seems too dark to me.
*The background needs to be more industrial and dark in texture, it's too light for the mood I'm trying to create.
Any other ideas?
Cheers all, especially those who offered advice to me so far.
