Hi Eva, thank you for your comment. I've been looking at your photos and this is the one that more attracted my eye...look I can give you some little advices. There is one big big composition rule that you must know if you want to take good pictures, it's calles "the thirds rule" and you can find it on Google very easily...when you will know it, you'll see it's a particularly easy rule, you just have to apply it like an obsession and you will see that good results will come very quickly. About your equipment I cannot tell you anything, because I don't use digital...I only use it when I have to scaner my films. But I really think that an old manual camera is the best to learn the basis of photography, because you cannot just press...Good luck and, a last advice, don't forget to look at the pictures of the great masters of photography, this is also very important...this way you will create an images' library in your mind :) Good luck!!!
