With digital cameras becoming extremely common, it seems like everyone is able to channel their inner photographer. Personally, I think it is fantastic! Just about any point & shoot camera gives you amazing quality pictures at an affordable price. I wanted to share some of the pictures that I've taken around DC and FL:

I have a Canon PowerShot SD790 (I really miss my 770, someone stole it) and love the quality for the price. One day, after I graduate, I plan on getting an SLR and learning more about photography. What type of camera do you use right now?

I usually buy Canon or Nikon cameras. They are extremely reliable and have great quality. Do you have a favorite brand camera?

First of all, i love your pictures Tflas!! =D Ever since i got a digital camera for my birthday, i took ALOT of pictures! I wished i took photography classes but i took the Art(studio) path instead. Tflas, rather than putting objects right in the middle, you should try putting some in a golden section(in the corner basiclly), and keep it up using angles!! Angles are your best friends by the way!! =D
The camera i got is the Nikon coolpix s7c and my parents got it for my birthday like 2 years ago for $250. I never knew but its considered as one of the best and now, a new one costs around $450. I LOVE my camera, the only problem is, i got a 2 inch scratch on the screen and i dont know how it got there...=(

Thanks! I have never taken a photography class but plan on doing so once I finish this program and have time. I'll try working with angles a bit, I usually just take pictures for family & friends that want to see the leaves change, pretty flowers, or what I've been up to in DC.

Oh no, a scratch on the LCD screen? at least it's the lens! An Art studio class sounds fun as well.

I love it that digital cameras allow us to take a million pictures and even if they're bad, you haven't wasted a lot of money on film and developing.

I wish I could see your pictures! I put the link in my browser but nothing came up. First, I have a Nikon D60 SLR camera with two lenses an 18-55mm and a 55-220mm. I love nikons, they really are amazing. I have gotten in to photography over the past two years and I love it! Yes digital is the best thing in the world! It's so nice to be able to see the picture right after you take it and then to be able to delete bad ones. I recently took my friends engagement pictures (it was my first paying shoot!) and it was so nice to be able to show them the pictures right there.

I'm trying to go in to photography in college and I hope to one day have my own gallery. I've taken a lot of pictures in the past year (it helped that I got a D60). My most recent accomplishment was sunrise pictures on the beach. I am so proud of them!

Oh I am so happy there is a forum about cameras! I absolutely love photography even though I di not have a good camera and I rarely take pictures but I am just fascinated with it. I've been looking at cameras and I have seen many I like my favorite so far is the Nikon D3000 but unfortunately it is not cheap.

I wish I could see your pictures but my computer isn't letting me. I'm sure they're great though!
