Default Got my new lens this week!

I am so excited! I finally got my first "non-kit" lens. It is a Canon EF-S 55-250mm IS. Some of the advice I have gotten here has really encouraged me to work on shooting in RAW and not using the Auto settings on my camera. So, I've gone out a few times this week, and I think I've gotten some pretty good results. But...I need some help, please!
If you don't mind, would you cruise on over to the critique Forums & look at one of my shots for me. Let me know how I'm doing? It would really help me out. I'll even make a short cut for you:
Evening Primrose

You're the best!!

Congrats on the new lens! The EF-S 55-250mm IS was my first non-kit lens as well, you'll love it. It has its limitations but if you learn to work within them you can get some great images with that lens.

It is okay to edit and post my images on DPS only.
