This is scary for me...

[pkogrant]

New to this, still consider myself a beginner with this photography thing and it's a scary thing for me to open myself up and hear what others think. But wanting to learn and get better. Just wondering what you all think of this shot.

Thanks, PK

Hi, pkogrant, don't be scared, we won't bite .

This is a picture with lovely colors and a good perspective. The light through the leaves is very nice. When I looked at a larger version of the image, the larger branches seem a little out of focus. Did you sharpen it in Elements?

[pkogrant]

Saralonde, no I did not sharpen, it's pretty much sooc. the only thing is I had to save it as such a low quality version to be able to attach it. That's why it appears to be blurry. The original is not like that. What can I do to correct that...do I need to upload to flicker or one of those sights and share it that way???

Thanks for your comments, they are much appreciated!

Flickr works really well, a lot of people here use it. If you go to the FAQ at the top of this page, it will explain how to post images. It's not too hard-even I can do it . If you have a problem, just pm me, or ask here.

Your picture brings back memories of my grandfather's farm when I was much younger. I remember laying in his hammock and looking up to the sky on that warm summer day. Thanks, your picture makes me feel so much younger again as I relive those carefree days. It is just as I remembered.
