I'm new to photography, using a Canon PowerShot SX610 HS.
I'm really interested in city views, especially at night, so I'd like advices about lighting and shit.
I'll post a few of my latest pictures.

Also, there's that annoying little dot on the pictures. How can I get rid of that?

That's Budapest, right? I lived there, I loved it!
You need some kind of vanishing point, and composition. Also, get rid of the dirt spot with the clone stamp or spot healer. What editing software do you have, if any?
>>2850048
I don't use any accessories or editing software yet.
But I want to clean it off. I tried, but it was still there. I think it's in the inside. And I don't know how to disassemble the camera.
>>2850046
Yeah, that's budapest. I was born there. It's really awesome.

Sweet, I went to BME. Lived on Vas Utca, by Blaha Lujza Ter for awhile, then moved over by Petofi Hid, near Ferenc Ter. It's so beautiful there!

Dang, I always go by all these places at least once a week.
I'd say that it's the best near the river, especially at the Szabadság híd. When I was coming way home there was a dude playing songs on glasses. I even recorded it. I'll try uploading them.

You have pretty good English. Take care. Szia :)

Thanks :)

Everything is out of focus man, basically you photographed the same subject like five times.. what did you want to achieve? Cause from what you posted it seems like you have about zero self critique..
If you want to learn to photograph:
Learn the basics, figure out how a camera works, look at photos in general (at this point pretty much anything helps you) and eventually invest into a proper camera.
So go and process that if you mean it, because with pictures like this you will be torn apart here, these are hardly even snapshits.

This, also you're in luck because Budapest is full of exciting subjects.
