New member with a photo from 11/17/18 taken on Schoodic side of Acadia National Park
Very nice. Welcome to the forum.
Just a small tip, use the "quote reply" like I did here so people know who you are responding to.

Hello Everyone - I'm a new member who joined this morning. I really like what I'm seeing within this group. I'm retired and have become an avid amateur photographer. I try to get out weekly to shoot landscapes. This past weekend, I visited the Schoodic side of Acadia National Park and took some photos on the Park Loop Road looking east into the Mount Desert Narrows. I was fortunate to be able to catch the clouds clearing around 3:00 PM. I've intentionally included lens flare in my picture, because I feel in this picture it adds to it. I was shooting on a monopod with a Nikon D750 and a Tamron 24 - 70 mm lens. Hope you enjoy the picture. -Paul

Welcome Paul, that's a lovely image.
Paul, what a great photo to introduce yourself with. The Scoodic is a special and unique part of Acadia. You did a nice job with the interesting clouds and sun flare. Your exposure retains a lot of details in the foreground. If I might nitpick just a bit, you might check your white balance. The sun’s highlights on the water and the longest ray of the flare look a little greenish. Perhaps warm it up a touch.
You won’t find a friendlier place than UHH to share photography experiences.
An exquisite image, very appealing.
