adolson Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 (edited) I feel kinda lame posting my pics here. I don't have a fancy camera, and they don't look as good as most of the stuff I see you guys posting, but nevertheless, here's a few shots I took this year that are my favorites so far. Pete's Dam Duck that hung out for 1-2 hours as we caught walleye. Mattagami Lake Mosquito bite. Mattagami Lake Pete's Dam Canada Day fireworks. New Liskeard After we were done fishing for the day. Mattagami Lake (I hope those scale down automatically like I saw on the other posts. I'm sorry if there are too many pics or if they're too big.)

adolson Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 No fancy camera required Dana. Those are some great shots. Thanks. My friends have spent thousands on their camera gear, and they get awesome pics. Mine is just a Canon P&S, but I just have too many hobbies to drop more than $150-ish on a camera right now. I should have labeled those pics.. I'll edit my post and do that now, in case anyone is curious about location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiel Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 thats an awesome lookin fly! good job to who ever made that one! I confess, I tied it. It was on a dare from Aplumma who said if I could tie a mosquitoe he'd donate to the "Fishing for Tyler." I tied, he paid! Thanks for the kudos.

adolson Posted July 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks everyone.. I still don't like my pics as much as others my friends do, or people here (Brandon for example). Cool shot! Reminds me of one I took. Haha, I didn't even notice what it was at first. I'm stupid sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBen Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) What others have said, don't knock the hardware. The pics are good and the enthusiasm is evident. I often feel that people today jump into DSLRs when theres no real need. Meaning they can get a PnS and do just as well, for what they want. It's not the hardware that makes a good photo, and having all the best equipment while it helps in some respects, it's not the be all and end all. I know people that have spent tons of money on stuff, having all the best and it doesnt help them take better pictures. I have and use both, and which I'm using at any given time depends entirely on what I'm shooting/doing. Sometimes it's the driver, sometimes it's the car, usually a bit of both. Thats not to say you can do anything with a PnS that you can with a DSLR, you can't. But understanding each systems strengths, limitations and photography and staying within the limitations, makes Aay differences (and there are differences) moot. Even the best "hardware" has limitations. Obviosly a cover shot A "double truck"...2 page spread. One of those was taken with "thousands worth of gear" and one of those was taken with a $400 Point and Shoot. Can you see/tell a difference? Go out, continue to have fun with what you own and take great pictures, your well on the way and you can do it with any system.
