Hey. These are my first pictures I've posted. What do you think? They were shot with a Nikon D80

Get closer. Work that rose.

Hold your hand in front of the lens and see how close you can focus. I bet you can get three or four inches from the rose. That will make the photo much more dramatic. Try again and see what you get.

Exposure is correct. Now add interest and drama.
