I'm fairly new here and would like to upload a photo but can't find 'my gallery' or how to set it up. Would greatly appreciate instructions. Kora

I'm sure it is addictive. Can feel it in my bones. LOL

Many thanks for everyone's help. I've uploaded my first photo. Whoopee! I'm stoked.

HEY - Looks Great! Congrats on an excellent initial post to the gallery! The only thing I would recommend (and - it's hard for me to say anything about anybody else's work...but I've had a couple of beers - so here goes. These are my opinions ONLY) The background looks a bit busy - two ways to get around that: 1. a slightly larger aperture - yes, it's gonna give you less depth of field, but careful alignment of the subject with the focal plane will give you the maximum depth with minimum depth of field. 2: Longer lens from further away - this will knock the background out of focus in a heartbeat....as well as portions of your subject if not careful. To give an idea - I've taken the liberty to play with the image in photoshop - roughly simulates a longer lens or more shallow depth of field.

To Wolfsnap, you forgot the trick I do often. Just use a flash, it will black out the background if its not to close to your subject. Thats the way I do it,so that the buttie or flower are all you see.

Apophis906: One possibility, but the problem with shooting something like this with a flash....is that it looks like it was shot with a flash. I prefer the natural effect of the natural light. I also have never really been a fan of black backgrounds in shots like these - looks like they were shot in a studio. I prefer a muttled, natural background. (just my opinion, though)
