Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hello all this is my first post here. I come here and read once in a while just to learn more. And see some cool photo's. Here is a couple of shots I took a couple of days ago. Just wanted to hear what you all think the good and bad.
I have a Nikon D 50 and only 1 other lens right now. A 18-55 mm and a 55-200 mm the pic's below are with the 18-55 on a mirror and are of some of my BP's. Well Thank you in advance Brian

Here are 3 of them I posted more on the BP forum.

You've made generally sharp and well-exposed photos, and you've tried to make them more interesting with the mirror.

They look good, but it would help if you didn't always put the animal's eye at near dead-center. Read about the rule-of-thirds for photographic composition. Look at what professional wildlife photographers do. Try for variety.

good work and keep at it!

Cool I never thought about that. When I took those I was trying to get that and the middle between the reflection and real. And thank you. I have never read a book on photography, these and other pic's I have taken are on the fly just what I thought looked good at that time. Now that you mention it I think I will because if I can improve on my photos all the better.

Thank You Brian
