Like many others in this group, I have enjoyed playing with cameras since the late 1940's starting with a Kodak 35. Over the years I have enjoyed many cameras, including the German Retina's, Ikoflex, Rolliflex's Speed Graphics, and a string of F series Nikons. Then came digital, starting with various Nikon's and now the Olympus OM D EM 1 Mark 11. I take mainly scenery on our vacation trips and then process my raw images in LR and the Photoshop. Over the years, I feel skilled with about twenty percent of both programs. I then print them on 13x 19 paper, show them to my wife and put them in a box.
Now I am getting the nerve to post two of my favorites; the first taken at Glacier National Park and the second during an early morning arrival in New York Harbor.
Bear in mind what Henry Kissinger was noted for saying; " I don't mind criticism as long as it's not excessive, but frankly I find any criticism excessive."

Great photos. WOW!!!!
I often wonder how many photographers are out there on a level of our masters who are afraid to submit photos.

Great photos, “grichie5”! I particularly like the early morning image of New York harbor. It is meaningful to me because my family lived in N.Y. for a short while and we rode the Staten Island Ferry on several occasions. Thanks for sharing them with us.

I really like the first one but, the second one speaks to me as well.

I like both of these. I am not positive, but does the second tilt a bit to the right or is it just the perspective?

These are very good. Consider bringing your portfolio to a local library or bank to see if they are willing to let you exhibit them. I also began photographing in the late 1940s so I know the clock is ticking.

Very nice pictures,
The second brings back memories. I used to take the SIRT to the ferry terminal then the ferry to Manhatten and walk to work. Then you could smoke on the lower level. At times you could not see the other end of the ferry for the smoke.
Then we moved to the city. No more SIRT no more ferry no more Verrazano Bridge.

I would suggest that you straighten the photograph of NY Downtown. Minor adjustment.
