You should post acouple and get some feed back on what might be wrong. The crew will give advice on settings, composing, editing etc. that you can then take out in the field to practice.
Keep up the clicking

well see that, 1st step completed. And you have nothing to worry about, it's a nice shot. moving objects are hard to keep in focus so don't worry that the girls are not sharp all around. A little cropping to get the gate bottom out would help the over all look and a faster shetter speed could help the moving softness. If you go to Create a topic it's the easiest way to post pics, just like you did here. It also makes it easier for others to find it since it will come up in the Active Topics right away. and don't click the Preview button, it seems to mess up the picture posting somehow
Nice job

Thanks & actually I did crop it, just not enough....giggle. But now I know that I need to crop some more ;) It is very hard to get them running. I just have a point & shoot - so at times, what I want 2 focus on, is not the same thing the camera wants 2 focus on & it really makes picture taking a task (especially macro pics) I never know where the camera is going 2 focus, so...... I just get lucky some times. I will try a new startup or put some pics on here in different places & go from there. Thanks so much for your help.

thanks.... I just put two more pics on here - under "things that make us chuckle" (something to that effect.) I am wondering what kind of comments I am going to receive, from them, if any? ;)

Welcome aboard, MissStephie.
This is a nice shot. If anything, I'd crop out the fence at the top.

they are precious, Janangelo! I love almost all critters but Chi's are my favorite! :D Thanks for the warm welcome. I hope I will be able to get a good camera before too long. I have been having 3 issues with my P & S and it's driving me crazy! lol.
