Default My week-random shots

Hello! This is my first time posting pics here at DPS! Some random pics from my last few days. Been trying to practice things I've learned from all of my DPS reading. Opinions welcome! Thanks for looking!

Thanks! I really have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to photography. I am such a beginner! I didn't edit any of these except a litle clone brushing on the corners of the first two where I decided to turn them and it left white space.
