I have always enjoyed photography, but recently have gotten more
involved. It looks like I can learn a lot here. Here are a couple of
pictures I took within the last couple of weeks.

Not sure if you wanted comments or not - if not, read no further. The first one to me has nice colors, but I'm not sure what the subject is. If you meant to showcase the house and the bridge I would suggest a widder or not so close view for a mre pleasing perspentive. The second one looks very serene. It also appears too bluish. The wooden deck, the road, and the bridge footings for example have a color cast that I doubt is accurate. Guessing your white balance needed adjusted. I like the concept of both of these Thanks for sharing.

Hi larryh,
I played a little with the color balance, although the "correct" tone didn't feel right to me. I added a little more blue than was actually recorded, but for me it works. I hope you don't mind the slight cropping, it is a beautiful image, one that I wouldn't mind having on my wall!!! :-)

Here is another option - for those that enjoy an editing pogram such as Photoshop something to look at. I would not attempt to argue that any is any better then any others. and yes I could have done a nicer jos of making my selections if I had taken more time. I understand also that some use editing programs very little or not at all which of course is a personal choice. Thanks for sharing.

The original picture of the pond, even the with blue (blue is calming color, so is green) is a good. I like the shadows, the all merge to give the calmness of the situation.
