Did I do the photo justice

Really did not do much. Took your original, used sepia filter, adjusted the level, and then sharpened it. Ive used sepia once in awhile when I'm doing photomatix. I copy the original, change it to sepia and then add it to the rest of the pics and let photomatix do the rest. Not sure what I was doing but it made the end product look more natural when added to the mix. Just fun to mess with. I'm sure there are some real technical terms for what I did I just don't know them
Have a great day

Did I do the photo justice

Here is my try, I focused on clarity of faces since that should be the focal point, in my opinion.

Older Person Portrait

I'd Use Protrait Professional, but I'm not a good photographer like most on Hedgehog. I do Photo's for realtors and they turn out great, all kinds of flexability to get the look you want.

Microsoft Digital Pro10

Would anyone recommend this program?
I have it and it seems to work okay but I may not be getting the kind of results I should expect.
Thanks

Would anyone care to comment on Microsoft digital Pro 10.
My not so great pictures may in some part be the result of this program
Thanks

If you would read my own response to what I wrote, you would have had no need to respond this way. I guess some of you feel the need to be nasty and Rude, hope you feel better Now!

Are you refering to the Dining room Pic?

You are right, there is no "R" don't know why I put it there.

I attached a Picture I took of a clients house. This was taken in a RAW format and converted to Jepg by photomatrix pro.
Are pictures like this possible without photomatrix by using a really expensive camera?

I didn't realize I would be offending people. I guess I will learn to identify what is and is not appropriate for this forum. I joined this forum to try and learn a little bit about photography and about some of the people that enjoy this as hobby or professionally. I suppose I do not have a whole lot to contribute at this point so I will limt
my comments as I try and figure out what everyone finds offensive or acceptable
Have a good day

Long exposure, Yes, 8mm Yes, Room agnles were correct but camera was not level. I have found when using a wide angle lens that I need to shoot more square into the object instead form a side angle like this one. Also photomatrix was used.
Thanks for your response and great observation.

Thanks, I will eventually show you some outside shots that belong in the trash. I want to blame the camera so I can get a new one. The Nikon D3000 is too slow for what I do, sometimes it takes me 2.5 hours to do a 1 hour home. I do not have auto brackteing. Some times I shoot in a not so well lit space at f22 and ISO 100 (Bracketing -4, -2, 0, +2, +4). this takes forever. I'm probably doing this all wrong but sometimes the results are okay.

Thanks again
