Default Getting this over with
I am just going to jump in and get active with the forums. I've been reading reading reading. I've had a great time going through all the posts and reading so many of the tutorials. Have to admit that PP is really scaring me. Thats the next phase though. Here goes nothing!

Welcome to DPS, you picked the right place to learn and a good set of shots to begin with. PP is not all that difficult, if I can (half-way) do it anyone can.

Very nice images for your first post! I like the bubble shot, and the horse is very nice. Welcome aboard!

Welcome to DPS. I just jumped in and now need to do what you have done - read, read and put it into practice. Great place to learn and watch what others are doing with their fotos.

Now to yours - great start - like the colour in the bubbles and DOF. I think the horse shot is great with all the kids trying to touch it. Well done, Cheers, Bernz
