    That's awesome, Kay! I love when you guys put what setting you have your camera on along with each pic. That is what really helps me to learn.

    Keep those great pics coming!

    What setting is everyone using for taking pictures of their pets? I've noticed that Kay's photos of Ki, Nala, and Simba are so clear, my photo's of the girls don't turn out good at all....

    That link to saugus.net doesn't work for me, I'm getting an "access denied"-message.

    Regarding pet photography: I would also like to know, as I'm still not very happy with mine...

    Love the sunset picture by Kay, btw!

    Can I post some of my pictures here, even though I don't use an S2? (I use a Rebel)

    Sure!


    BTW, I have some new photos also, landscape shots this time:










    And a night shot of one of our bridges here, in two different versions:






    Unfortunately, I forgot which settings I used. I think for the bridge shot, I used the tv mode...

    On my Rebel, there's a Portrait setting that I use, but I'm not sure about on other cameras...

    The S2 has such a setting, too, but I never tried it so far...

    The only really bad thing about the Portrait setting is that it likes to use the flash which can sometimes ruin the picture.
