I like to pretend I actually know how to take cool pictures.
Took these with a run of the mill point-and-shoot cameras.

I wouldn't know anything about photography, but I think those are pretty neat. Some interesting composition. I'd love to get into photography, it's just so damn expensive!

Yeah, it is. I think it's an incredibly powerful thing to learn though; a lot of the 3D and Illustration things I read about have connections with photographic exposure.

I think black-and-white is a fix-all that makes everything look good. That crab rawks.

I've been told that when you have straight lines in your image - particularly things like horizons - they should be photographed (or cropped) to be perfectly vertical, perfectly horizontal, or very obviously slanted. If it's just slightly off, then it looks like a mistake and makes the viewer uncomfortable.

I'm guessing you're referring to the one with the jelly fish in the foreground and the mountain in the background?
I kinda like it but I will be honest I didn't take the shot in the greatest position. I just bent over and lowered the camera vertically in front of the jellyfish. Kinda a pot-luck shot I guess.

ooh nice photos! i love the little crabby! so much texture! yes the back and white works cause of all the texture. The others are cool too, just not so much a specific focus point in most of them. I like where the crab isn't perfectly in the centre of the photo (like the last photo of the crab) so it shows more of it's environment and the distance it traveled to get there. It would have been nice if the crab in that photo was sharp and the background blurred.
