Another thing to add, it annoyed me for few days that i didn\'t wrote this.. To get the sky blue\' you need the sun to be behind you.. so it\'s good to take sky pictures early in the morning or late afternoon with your back facing the sun.. Wide angle lens can help too.. And of cource the Circular Polarizer i\'ve mentioned before..
When you say \"All types of photography\", what i think of is accessibility.. And most DSLRs are big and clumsy.. If that\'s what you meant i would suggest: - The Olympus E-450, the smallest and lightest DSLR. - And even more the Canon G11, which have most of the features you can find in DSLRs but much much smaller. You can even add lenses and filters with a special mount. Hope it helped in any way..
Hello Emre (BTW that was my grandfathers name also), First, your photographs are great. Good composition and exposures. Second, the difficult part, let\'s take it step by step. - Fonts: to many kinds gives it a messy look (and that\'s hard in a minimal design) - Font color: the dark gray on the light gray of the page works great, the strong blue on the light gray of the page hurts my eyes :) . - Going through the site pages: On most of the galleries it\'s hard to go back to the main page, except for the Kiev gallery. - Galleries: Every gallery looks , and feels , different and not belong to the same site you were directed from. - About Me page: looks and feels good. I would\'ve change the size of all fonts to be smaller, gives it a more clean look. - Links page: Also, change the size of the fonts will give it a more clean look. You can also give more space between sentences. - Contact Me page: The red color of the fonts burn my eyes :) . Hope you\'ll get it as a critique and not in a bad way. Much luck and keep getting these beautiful pictures.

Well, first you can add a Circular Polarizer screen (some calls it filter) to your lens, this can eliminates reflections from the pond (just by turning the screen you will see the difference), and also will increase contrast and color saturation (that\'s for your white sky). Of course, other values you put on your camera are important, where is the light source when you take a picture etc.
The question is, in which situation are you getting the glares? Is it when the object of the photo is between you and the sun (and/or another source of light)? Are there any metals or glass that can reflect light? If light is not the issue, please give more details on when are you getting the glares..
