I like your photos -- the compositions and colours and style; I can't tell you are new to DSLRs actually, but nor do I care. And you sure do get around to some cool places!
Just one tip, if I may, and nothing to do with the photos. Captions.. maybe I'm the more literary type, but I find that well-written, descriptive captions always make the photos that much better.
Thanks!
For Egypt, i was really anxious. I read and even bought an ebook on tips of where to shoot. Before that trip, i also read Bryan Peterson's Understanding Exposure so i used alot of Brother Blue Sky for exposure. Composition-wise, i just kinda keep the rule of thirds in mind (not that it happens in practice always).
For Melbourne, i was more relaxed and just kinda left the camera on multi-segment metering most of the time and focused on far points for most landscape shots (can't apply hyperfocal distance on 18-135mm as no distance gauge nor had i any idea how far is the correct hyperfocal distance) but most of the time i noticed pictures were quite ok... i do astutely check the f-stop i'm shooting on most of the time (unless i decide to just freewheel and leave it on P mode).
I go to cool places cos the better half is a keen traveller. I tend to be more passive when it comes to travel plans...
When you say captions, you mean put it in the description box on flickr? or in the picture like a watermark?
