    Practiced panning again. Didn't do great but I feel better about it, I dunno if I am correct but is it harder to pan an actual human running vs. a car or motorcycle?

    You do not want to use the center column. Defeats the purpose of having a tripod. Well, IMHO it does. Why? When you extend the column, the camera is now able to move in any direction and is way more susceptible to sway. If you want to use the column for something, hang a camera bag off of it to hold it down (column all the way down).

    Not sure how serious you are about photography but a $30 tripod is likely going to be unstable. For a little more, you can find something better.

    Wesley, you're right. People are harder. The second shot is pretty good but then so is the first--you got the eyes.

    The last one seems a bit under exposed. And cutting the tips of the fingers out on the first one kinda bugs me. But the look great!

    I think you did pretty well with the MIG shot. Maybe a tad under exposed but you get an idea for the weld and that's pretty cool!

    Your night shot is nice too but you want to be more careful on the exposure--the lights are a bit over exposed.

    Two nice photos for sure.

    Finally got a decent long exposure picture. Kinda pleased with this, needs work though IMO.
