Shooting JPEG and RAW are two completely different worlds. In RAW, you overexpose in order to get shadow detail, then pull it back. In JPEG, you underexpose so you don't blow out the highlights, then push it up to whatever brightness you want.
A few beginning photo tips that came in handy for me: Get close. Then get closer. ~Robert Capa Shit on your desk is not interesting. Leave your room, take pictures of people. ~ /p/ Use Velvia! ~Liska (for another compelling reason to use Velvia, check out flickr.com/photos/moaan) Don't be afraid to take pictures of people, seriously. You will get a better reaction than you can imagine. Play the student card, say you're in a class, whatever it takes. But also, be respectful. If someone says no, then respect that decision of theirs. The picture probably isn't worth getting chased after. Ruthlessly edit your work, be your own harshest critic, because you're not going to get any better from anyone else. ~me
