shots are good but you need to work on composing .....the "rule of thirds" would be a nice place to start..

the 2nd to last shot is a bit cluttered, im not sure what to look at..... also a nice low (camera on the ground) perspective would help alot too .

the last shot is the most promising , a little more to the right and you would have gotten a nice vanishing point perspective on the railings with either the first post or bike in focus.. or i could be wrong ,you just need to take alot of pics and see which one works im no expert , its just some suggestions i thought might have helped....

[TRAE]

To all the photographers here maybe you can give me some advice. I have a bridge camera, but I really want to upgrade to a dslr, but since the cost is kind of high is there any where in Trinidad that rents DSLRs for a reasonable price?

I am looking at the t2i but to me that's still expensive, so I really wanted to use a DSLR first before I make the jump.

Also in an attempt to justify the cost, I just want to get an idea of how many of you all are professional or part time photogs? Do you use entry level DSLR's or do you need a full frame to really get into being a professional? Also other than being a wedding photographer how else can you make money in this area? I am asking all of these questions because I am interested in this but have no clue.

hobby....do little paid events now and then

canon 7d.... 24-105 L, 70-200L, 50mm....

Part Time

Do you use entry level DSLR's or do you need a full frame to really get into being a professional?

No need for full frame.. the market here does not care. My D90 got smashed the other day during a shoot, and I finished the shoot using a D40. Client was happy.... the D3100 is an excellent camera, even for a pro to use, but you pay for more buttons and CONVINIENCE with the larger bodies. I shoot family setttings/ children in natural light most times, so the D40 is plenty when couppled to my 50mm f/1.4 and a large reflector. Make sure and get a good flash... I use an SB 900. That is for nikon digital. I don't know the canon digital linup as I only shoot canon film SLR's (EOS3 and the original 35mm rebel) and only own the ancient 50-200mm pump zoom and the new 50mm f/1.8 lens. All I can say is that Canon and Nikon are both quality systems, and every time they make something shiddy, a Japaneese guy stabs himself then cuts off his own head. The guys here will help you more if you want to go canon.

Also other than being a wedding photographer how else can you make money in this area? I am asking all of these questions because I am interested in this but have no clue.

Sell prints of places, events (birthdays etc), stock, seasonal, wildlife/ nature. I did two Christmas shoots with people in their living room after church while they were still dressed up. I have a shoot lined up for a coupple and their carnival costumes on a beach, and I am working on some Easter post church protrait sessions. I do it as a hobby and use the money to partially pay for my gear, usually one or two portrait sessions a month. Wedding photography requires a lot of time, patience and hard work, and I suggest that you get experience under a pro before doing it. I shot one wedding for free once, and it end up costing me nearly $2,000.00 in labour (both on the day and post processing), gas, time spent cleaning gear, batteries etc. Not going to do that again in a hurry.
