Thanks 1066.
Naming is a big part of it for me.
It generally gets called whatever comes in to my head first.
Quite often this is during or just after the shot, but occasionally in post editing.
These were taken at a Tulip Festival in the Dandenong Ranges.
There were acres/hectares of colour on the day
Red Tulips Aglow
Fun in the Tulips
Great shots shaka.
What lens did you use, and how close were you?
Thanks mooseeyes and Merlin for your nice comments.
No CPL and no HDR used
A little burn on the lower part of the clouds.
a small amount of dodge on parts of the trunk and foreground posts.
Then ran a high pass to sharpen.

What does it need to improve overall?
I have made it as sharp as I can

I am new to UHH and it was the first time I had to place an edited version of the original post. What I did seemed to be my only option.
I will look more carefully next time.
Happy to be a trailblazer, quite thrilled to be the first at anything! :lol:
Levels adjusted, mid tones slightly.
Thanks to each and every one of you for the warm welcome.
I am really looking forward to picking up some tips, tricks and critiques in an effort to improve my images.
I posted one in the Gallery a day or so ago titled "Old Rail Bridge" and have already received some good feedback and suggestions.
Sorry to hear about your wifes Nikon travlman46, probably a good thing, as the images would have all come out upside down anyway.
Thanks stefc and billybuzz.
I see your point on the underexposed and will give it a tweak tonight.
Thanks to everyone for the comments and suggestions.

Thanks photophly. I wondered that at the time about that, but was aware of not wanting the horizon to be in the centre

Would like thoughts on composition, colour etc.
What could be improved and how?

G'day from down under!
Thanks for what looks like a very active and comprehensive forum.
I look forward to learning from others experience, and improving on my own work as a result.
