Welcome to UHH, DB. Perhaps if you posted some pictures, folks might be able to give you some pointers.
Welcome to the Hog, Davy. Sixty-three better not be old- I have a decade on you. Keep shooting and you will get it and as said above, give us a peek and maybe someone here can help you over the hump. ;)

You have some nice shots there, I'm not too far up the road from you in St. Francis and a bit older at 79. I enjoy grabbing people shots in Anoka.
