Ahh okay.

I had no idea of your name and noticed in the link it was Andrew and hoped it would be all right to call you Andy.

Nessy from now on.   :-)

You'd need to upload them to a site like Picasa or Flickr and then link the images from there. Or you can attach them to your post as Ziltoid has done in the post above

Got a new camera the other day, a Canon 1300D so been messing about with it, managed to get some brilliant shots of the cats.

Incredibly proud of how the first one turned out.

Any tips for improving would be most welcomed!

One thing i'm wondering, is how do people get pictures of the stars!? Is there a certain set of settings to use or a certain lense?

The camera you have should be fine best settings are the lowest aperture your lens can go f2.8 if possible and a wider lens is better to get more of the sky, the iso setting i use is between 3200-5000 and i usually do between 20-30 second exposure depending on how dark the skies are where i am

I know I'm late AND off topic, but those early morning walks when the kids are that young..the best feeling there is. No one else is awake and it's just an atmosphere that cannot be described.
