I'd like to sell a few more prints, and hopefully do well in some more wildlife photography competitions nothing wrong with aiming high!!

I'd also like to improve at Landscape and Macro stuff.

Re: Your Personal Goals

To pull my finger out and get more photography done so I can contribute more on here if I'm honest.

Most of you put me to shame - not because I can't be bothered but with work and the baby I just don't seem to be getting out as much as I'd like.

I'd also like to get a website of my own set up for my images.

I've a few ideas for making a bit of cash too but that's a wee while off just now.
Kit 1
Canon 1D Mark 3
Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L USM
Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM
Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Kit 2
1D2 & 40D

Re: Your Personal Goals

Sorting out a website, buying my D700 and some other kit... getting out there in the comissions line. I'd like to sell a few more of my prints - and I'd like the print I have in auction soon to sell really well (it's for charity).

Erm... I want to continue improving at my macro, and fancy mucking about with a few more wildlife shots

Re: Your Personal Goals

Thats a good question.
As I'm starting from scratch it would be good to set some targets.
At the moment I'm just dabbling in a bit of everything, a portrait here, a flower there.
I'm not sure which is best - to just keep exploring or to focus on one aspect and get good at that.
Keeping up with my 52 is certainly a good starting goal.
I'd also like to get some more good pictures of the kids in our hallway so that I can hang a collection of portraits up in there.

Re: Your Personal Goals

I think we need some more challenges - maybe get members to 'enrol' and that way they have to do them. Might be a good way to get disciplined about it all
