I love this photo. I have yet to attempt it. Mostly bc I do not know how. Any tips?

I own a Nikon D3000 and recently purchased a 55-300 lens. I do like taking abstract photos, but most of all photos of children. Here is one of my favorites

Here's the Texas Capitol dome. Very common shot, but everyone has to take it.

I am ready to buy my first Nikon. I think I want the D3100 as I am a true novice and the Guide mode on it sounds like it would be a big help. I have also considered the D90 and the new D5100. Any thoughts to help me in my decision. I would really appreciate any help. I am a 70 year old grandmother who takes thousands of pictures and want to improve my skills.

I must say the last several photos you have posted have been absolutely beautiful! The colors and detail are amazing and really beyond words that I have to describe them.
I have really enjoyed the architectural photos of the Capital.
Any secrets to your success you want the share?

I'm also a novice. I got a D3100 in December. I am just starting to really learn about it & I do love it. It's been pretty user-friendly for someone like me, who's just starting to really learn about photography. I did recently take a beginners digital photography class at a reputable camera shop in my area. I would also recommend a class like that to help you understand the fundamentals.

I suspended a plastic bag over a bowl of water and put a pin hole in the bag. I focused on where the drops were falling to shoot. I used fabric to cover my background to get the color. The camera needs to be on a tripod and you will have to take literally hundreds of shots. I shot nearly 300 pictures and ended up with about 10 that were really cool and 2 that I was able to capture the full ball of water. I used my flash wireless to illuminate the fabric.

I haven't shot trains in awhile, but yesterday it just seemed the right thing to do.
