Nicely done!
Here in my county we can build a 150 sq ft building without any permission. It did raise my tax bill though:-(

I appreciate all the complements. I'm just a humble beginner, so don't swell my head too much...lol

I started with a disposable camera...then I upgraded to a Pentax P3. The next was a series of P&S digital cameras over the years.
Today I have an entry level DSLR that works just fine. Until the next technology beyond digital comes along, or my camera breaks, I'll stick with what I have.
But.....maybe I can be tempted to get some better lenses:-)

Nicely done. I grew up there in the 50's & 60's Squirrel Hill area. It's a much cleaner city now. Coming back for a visit later this year.

Very nicely done Linda.
I have been shooting a few dragons myself. Good time of year for them.

NEF is unique to Nikon. You can download a NEF codec from Nikon which should help. My Windows 10 didn't see it either until I installed the codec.

Thanks. I did need this codec. It allowed windows to see the NEF files. But I still needed to install my camera profile. Now it works. :-)

GIMP will not load RAW files. You must use a DNG converter.

I just uninstalled GIMP. Thanks for saving me some time deciding i didn't need it.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.
Here is what I tried......downloaded and attempted to install the camera codex from Microsoft. It proved to be only for Windows 7 or Vista.
I did install the upgrade patch for Aftershot Pro 3. This still did not allow me to see the NEF files.
I installed the Codex from Nikon and this did allow me to see and use windows explorer to open the files which i could not before. Thanks Orange Krate.
None of the above helped solve my problem until I ran across a youtube video that said I needed to install my camera profile. Duhh....can't imagine why that would help....<g>
Installed the profile and all is good here in Virginia.
Thanks everyone for you input.

I got a software suite when I bought my D3400. Included are Corel Aftershot Pro 3 and Corel Paintshop Pro X9.
The RAW Nikon NEF files WILL NOT show in Aftershot. I don't even see the files in the Aftershot browser. But they will show up in Paintshop. I don't know why.
I also tried to open a NEF file with GIMP that I installed, and Gimp can't see them either.
My computer is very new and meets all the system requirements from the Corel website.
If I double click on the files in windows explorer no image comes up. I'm using Windows 10 with the latest updates.
Any ideas. I know someone here knows something I don't...lol.

UTGhog - I'm not familiar with the Corel tools. I'd suggest three changes: 1, revisit the exposure setting and increase the "brightness" of the image. The colors are rich, but this version is too dark. 2, revisit the sharpening settings. This may be as sharp as the capture accomplished (lens & camera), but I believe some more modest adjustments can still be made in the resulting image. 3, when capturing the RAW images in the future, adjust the exposure more to the right in the histogram so that you have brighter images to begin with in the edit process (ETTR - expose to the right).

You might crop-in closer such as the leaf in the lower right exiting the corner of the image bringing the dragon larger within the resulting, smaller image frame. Overall, good start and hopefully will generate a desire for more.

This might be a little better. Thanks for the input CHG_CANON and everyone else. I have a lot to learn.
