[coalbee]

Ok. In early summer, 2004, I bought a DRebel. By mid summer, 2004, I was using it a bit. Now, late summer, I'm starting to get really serious with it. I find that I enjoy this hobby tremendously, and think that I could really get to be good at it. I bought a lens ( a Tokina 28-210) and am shooting in RAW and evrything, so ya know I'm a pro... My gallery is @ http://www.pbase.com/coalbee If you want to check it out. I know that I probably have a ways to go, as far as the quality of my shots is concerned, but I just need experience, some classes, and maybe a tripod . Anyway, I'm allways looking for some helpful criticism and pointers, if ya have any to offer.

One issue I've encountered is that while the photos look ok on me 3 (LCD) monitors, and me sisters CRT, they look all dark and muddy on tne monitors at work and at my sis's work. Also, I had http://www.pbase.com/coalbee/image/33921595 printed from my .tif file, and the print is quite dark and murky allthough it looks fine on my monitor .

Anyway, I hope you enjoy my gallery, and can help me to improve my technique further.
thanks
