Well, I have to say this is a venture for me. I'm new to "posting"; photographs or messages to complete strangers! This seems like a good place to start and get some feedback and critiquing on my photos. I've taken pictures most of my life without much thought to how to take a "good" one. So, I am completely green to most photography dialogue. Bare with me.

This sunset is a dated picture but has not been Photoshopped or altered other then cropped, as I am still learning "how" to use tools to help.

Second picture was from last autumn. I was deciding whether to crop it and bring the bee up closer or keep it the way it is with the second flower in focus (to the right).

Thank-you! Using a Nikon camera now that allows for manual settings. I'm liking it. I need to add a zoom and a wide-angle lens.

Thank-you for the welcome's! I look forward to conversing with people!

Note: I find it funny that I don't even know how to reply seperately to each of you instead of a general reply to all!! I'm a quick learner if someone can point out how.

Ahh! Good to know you enjoy Canada! The top of my bucket list is to view the Eastern Seaboard (US and Canada) in all it's autumn splendor!
Thank-you for the tip! I will be sure to check out the digital photo school!

Welcome Missy. I would experiement by cropping the bee in the flower to concentrate on that portion of the image.

Welcome to the UHH,
This is a great place to find anything related to photography, to get inspired, motivated, and to learn from great people willing to share.
I like both images and prefer the cropping of the bee that you did upon suggestion of a member here.

Enjoy and keep shooting. "the camera"
