What I've learned about the sun last days: It may be your "enemy", but also your ally. I hate when I have to take a photo against the sun. However, sometimes I seize the opportunity to try something interesting.
 This is The Torch Bearers, a sculpture by Anna Hyatt Huntington:  ^ I think the light gives a kind of "epic touch" to this image.

When you're not using a DSLR, mind your CCD. It's really not fond of direct sunlight or any bright direct light at all.

Btw, I noticed you are from Spain. That is awesome! I spent two months of summer during college studying at the Universidad de Salamanca (via a study abroad program). I had such a marvelous time! Really enjoyed my visit. |

Very nice photos s_k! You're really great with nature/scene shots. I really love that first pic (w/ the pond). And the ones of the field w/ like the powerlines (?). Those had some neat creative composure.
Looks like you live in a lovely place! |

I guess I do

), which is very old and very new at the same time. So I've shot at diverse "photographic targets", such as a medieval Muslim wall (9th century) and 21st-century skyscrapers:  3.3 million inhabitants... including "saints".... and "sinners"...    ...and above all, the sky:

Very nice pictures man.
Are you still making all this with a kodak compact camera? You deserve something better. Who knows what beautiful pictures you can make then Eitherway, I bought two camera's today on a bootsale. One is a VERY vintage Sony Mavica FD91  A VERY expensive camera back in the day but, it has to be said, even for 1999 it's pretty grainy:  But it's really very brilliant to work with Then I got this little Fuji MX700 which is a year older...  Looks pretty modern though. And the pictures are actually better than those from the oldskool Mavica.  Quite nice
