Who said you can't shoot w/ a P&S :) (Canon SD200) ? I am pretty proud of these pictures.

Let me know what you guys think. What could I improve on?

Thanks & Enjoy!

Try use less wide angle when taking high contrast shots, it should reduce the chromatic abbreviation level :wink:

So focus more on the subjects? But then it is kind of hard when I want the entire field of displayed right?

I guess the only way is to walk further away from the things u wanna take picture of.

I'm not too keen on the single flower shots but the windmill and garden scape are good photos.

Subject distance and focal length have nothing to do with CA. It happens when you have a dark edge (trees, leaves, roof edge etc) against a bright background (white sky).
The small sensor and lens on compact cameras unfortunately make CA unavoidable.

see my comment above :)

^ So don't take dark subjects against bright backgrounds. . . gotcha! Thanks!

Generally it's best to expose for the highlights, i.e. the sky. This will remove the complete white out and reduce CA :)
You'll need to recover shadow detail in your image editor though.
