with the camera on auto you can do shots just like that

lol @ Auto! What camera were you sporting Andy?

Nice pics all-round, I love the Penquin & Frog shot - bloody class!

Nice pics, you need to watch your focus points though, try using a single point and focus on the eyes. The focus is on the wrong thing in a few of them.

Also try moving out of the comfort zone and moving on from auto, auto on a dslr is a bit of a waste, you need to practice with the other functions, I am a canon man, but I'm sure there will be inbetween modes which allow you to set things manually but also help you out by making sure the other settings are set in order to get a correctly exposed shot

It all comes with practice though, anyone can point a dslr on auto and hope for the best, the real skill is manually setting up the camera to get the perfect shot

They're not bad shots though, just need some adjusting IMO.

If you use auto your camera should self-combust.

Come on, Andy. Put some effort in

lol i do dick about with full manual some times.

i only get to use my camera once in a blue moon so never really get a lot of practice in.

but comments noted guys

You don't have to go full manual, just partially, I don't do full manual, either shutter or aperture priority is where it's at. Just the right level of control and help from the camera.
