nice pictures, especially nr.8

I'm going to Peru in july, so any tips you can give to a novice dslr user are always welcome...

PS: what ISO settings did you use for photo nr.6?

cheers,
zender

I like the people shots a lot, apart from maybe number 7, the girl looks a little intimidated by you, maybe should have used a longer focal length.

All in all, nice shots!

iso for #8 was 400,

one tip i have is CHECK THE VOLTAGE
this was my big mistake,
i took with me a D60 that i borrowed from my school and before i left i forgot to check the voltage on the power cord. The d60 charger only takes 160V, which is fine here in Canada, but in peru they have 220V i think. this little mishap cost me probably the best photo oppurtunity of life (8 blue and gold macaws in flight over the amazon river)

other than that, i would bring a fast yet long lens if you are going into the rainforest

and thanks Jeremy, thats an interesting observation
