    Here is the second set (in low resolution). If you’d like to look at these two submissions them as a series, these would be the first three. However, I know that the assignment maximum is three, so feel free to just assess three of them. :)[attachment=0:2vl3t76q]IMG_4245.jpg[/attachment:2vl3t76q]

    Thanks for your feedback! With the water moving that’s exactly what I was aiming for.. I guess I still have to practice a bit. I was shooting with a tripod but it wasn’t very stable. Perhaps I need to buy a new one.

    Thanks for the tips re One Shot, Al Focus and Al Servo – very useful.

    As to the lenses and my problem with the aperture. I have two lenses – a basic Canon EFS 18-55 mm – with which the aperture goes down to about f/4.0 – and a Sigma DG 70-300 mm – with which the aperture goes only to about f/5.0.

    In fact, I find it difficult to keep changing lenses for close and far away shots. Could you recommend a lens that covers for as many types of photos as possible?

    Thanks again!

    Hi, which forum do you mean? This chat? No problem. However, I wouldn’t want my assignment submissions to be publicised as we are all still learning.

    Hi,

    This is my entry. It is taken at a massive rally in Lebanon yesterday. The photos on the wall are of politicians and journalists assassinated in Lebanon in the past six years.
