Dunno if YOU are improved ;-)
In Response To: Am I improved (?) *LINK* ()

...but your photos definitely are! :-)

The BA looks great. It's totally free of reflections on the dial and bezel, and already close to a "dangerous" point where I wouldn't offer the 1600x1200 version for download anymore. However, in the big version there's a lot of dust that you could easily avoid if your house wasn't such an untidy mess.

No, seriously. Everyone stamps away the ubiquitous dust particles with the "stamp" or "clone" tool of his favourite image processing program. Since they are so small that they are hardly visible in the small version, you may well choose not to do that.

The wrist shot is, well, a wrist shot. I don't think it can be done perfectly if the "model" and the photographer are the same person. Jalle, for example, doesn't do wrist shots at all, probably because he feels that he's not in total control of the situation.

I'm not trying to show you up or something. Just trying to offer a bit more advice. You've made a few great steps in the right direction already. Keep up the great work. :-)
