A Saturday Well Spent

[amarchadgar]

I recently got my first DSLR, a Nikon D5000. I've been using various point and shoot cameras up till now and thought I'd upgrade to have better control over the pictures I was taking. I've felt really comfortable with this upgrade and would like to know about how I could improve; my sensibility over the scene, better understanding of what (more) the camera can do to help better the output.

Please post only ONE image in the thread. If you need to show more, link it to your set. If you post more than one, the other will be deleted at the moderators discretion

Since I needed to put forward more shots for critique, I thought a simple link to the flickr set would do. I'm rather confused right now because of the second rule and then the flickr guideline that follows. How am I supposed to show a number of images at once?
Anyway, I think I'll just put up one shot per day. To start things off.
