I've always been interested in photography and given it much thought as far as something to go to school for. This is one of my first shots ever and I just want some constructive criticism I have a bunch more that I have taken which I will post I'm sure. I have been editing them through iphoto and photoimpression its all I have now now. The camera I use is a point and shot Olympus FE-190.

Thats the Creek thats right on my left. I'll crop it though. I'm glad you like it though I expected I was doing something wrong all these other pictures look so great. It wasn't as warm until I edited it in iphoto.

JB0450, Welcome

Thank you for understanding that one photo at a time really is the fairest way to approach this category. There are many other places to post all your photos eventually. I just passed over several member's thread because of multiple pictures.

Yours is very much how the woods look and feel when I go trekking, right down to the cool moss in lower left. The sunlight tracing the contour of the path is good timing (or cooincidence?). Only thing that bothers the view is that bright bluish spot on left edge near center. Easy clone fix. Well done.

Hi and welcome to the group. I agree with the earlier comments regarding cropping. Looks just a tad underexposed on my monitor but a very nice first post. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
