Thanks! Well I used a high speed mode and took at least 5 pics of this guy/girl and one of them is this

For the most part, you seem to have a very good eye for composition and lighting.
For further exploration of landscapes, try some black and white.
(I did a similar concentration for AP studio art)
I know I still have waaaay too much to learn about the lighting part but for now I am mainly trying to learn about composition.
I haven't seen many b&w landscape shots but it's something I'd like to try out.

I've got a system with the large square filters you can adjust in front of the lense,
Once you have the system itself, the filters are pretty cheap actually. They are a lot of fun to use aswell.
I actually mentioned that in another thread and it's definitely a system I want to get in the future.
There is a very informative tutorial about GND filter on LuminusLandscape:

I think for now I am going to stick to what I have and try my best with what I have but I do plan on upgrading to a fullframe camera later this year at least I hope I will then I will definitely get that filter holder and a bunch of GNDs

Stop using "too lazy" as a crutch

Just do it it's just a darn topic. Not like it takes much energy. You only need to move both arms.
hahaha! The funniest comment I have seen lately and as much as I hate to say it you are actually right lol
I guess I am not very sure of my abilities and progress thanks to all the time I spent posting in forums full of pros and just don't want to "pollute" this forum with threads full of crappy pictures
