Hello lovely crafty ribbot army!
I have begun taking photos on my mom’s old Nikon D5000.
As I have no clue what im doing or how I even achieved that, I am looking for any other photographers on here who have some advice 
I take nature, animal, and sports photography (not pictured). The sports photos I take on my dad’s Sony A7 IV. I think he also said he had an old canon camera lying around I can use- Im unsure.
Anywhos any help is much appreciated 
Thanks!

DOGGGOOO, sry, those are really good pictures
Thanks! All of them are raw because idk what im doing
Wowowowowowowoww those pics are amazinggg! I’ve also been getting more interested in photography recently, and my stepdad lets me borrow his canon camera to take pics which i love. So sorry, i dont have any tips cause im still trying to learn myself lol. But it looks like youre doing pretty good so far; good luck on your journey!
Wow those pics are amazing. I love the flowers and the dog.
My grandma is an underwater photographer. And recently she took me to the Philippines to go diving. (sadly I can only go 60 feet underwater) and she let me borrow her little red TG6 camera. The photos I took are kinda bad
(she let me borrow her camera on one dive and I could see better through the camera than my mask
)
Any advice I could give is: focus on your target and have the background blurred. I don’t know how to change settings on a camera
cool!! those are really good! im not super experienced, but rule of thirds, birds eye/worms eye view helps me so much!!
wow those look so good!!
i’m not really good an expert or anything at photography but i do have a few tips :>
first one is the rule of thirds. with a 3x3 grid on your photo, the main subject/focus point should take up around two-thirds of the grid
another one is the viewpoint/perspective of the photo. depending on what angle you take your photo at, it really changes the overall look of the photo
and the last two is to have good lighting and a nice contrast between the colours to really bring out the best in your photo!
i hope this helps a bit! <3
Those pictures are BEAUTIFUL!!
Aperture! We talk about this stuff in photography class it just moves so slowwlllyyyy (these were all taken on my own)
If you wear glasses don’t take them off to take photos lol my older sister did that and she focused the camera lens in a way that matched her prescription so it was blurry for everyone but her
You’re doing amazing!! I love how your photos have turned out!
Ooh I love the plant photos you took!! 
I would say that to me, two of the most important things are light and composition. Like what some of the others are saying, there are many ways you can frame a photo and for light, black & white photography can be a good way to practice and see how shadows and highlights fall :)
Learning about color theory can also be a really useful thing for photography, because color combinations like complementary colors (e.g. red & green, blue & orange) can make your photos feel a lot more harmonious.
But really, the most helpful thing for me was just to practice a lot 
omg those r rlly good photos! im taking a photography class and I love it sm. I haven’t rlly learned that much yet, but the main thing Ive learned is Elements and Principles of Photography. it basically tells u how/where to frame the photo and kinda how to understand photos ig. I def recommend reading and learning about all of them.
YOUR DOG IS SO PRECIOUS cs
let me see if I can dig up some of my old pictures!
with this one if you look close I think the camera lens was being wonky but I kinda like itI’ve taken like 200 but these are the ones that i’m actually proud of lol
Beautiful photos everyone! 
Hopefully @abbymayart doesn’t mind being tagged - she’s posted a ton of helpful info about photography before
I don’t mind one bit! The more people that post can help the better imo! 
Those are so good! I enjoy photography but I dont do it alot so sorry I dont have any tips really.
having the background blurred is good for a lot of photos. sometimes when someone is looking somewhere or pointed a certain direction it’s good to have more room on that side of the photo (I hope I explained that ok).
you can also probably find photography tips on youtube or somewhere too, from like professionals.
your photos look great to me though!!!
