I'm not a profession either. I just take lots of pictures and have been doing so for years. The more you shoot the better you'll get. You are off to a good start. :clap

You have a giraffe but if it isn't good enough I'll give you one of mine. Here you go............

How do you get so close? Does your camera have a good zoom? I've got a new camera, maybe I should go take some more pics and see if they are better then my last ones

I do have some great zoom lens but I also cropped that picture. He's quite a bit farther away than it looks.

Regarding your new camera. Just take it with you where ever you go and shoot anything and everything. Practice makes perfect as they say.

Before you press the button just try and pay close attention to the composition. Try and frame only what you want to see. ie: No telephone poles coming out of a persons head etc.

One little tip that can work wonders. Just before you push the shoot button take a deep breath, exhale it and keep it that way. It helps to steady the camera and your pics will probably turn out quite a bit sharper. Then take the shot and hold the camera very steady for a couple of seconds after the shot is taken. Point and shoot type cameras have a shutter delay and sometimes the shot really hasn't been captured when you think it has.
