A little day trip with my little canon point and shoot to this State Park in Tallahassee. In moments and within a few feet of each other I came away with some pretty good calendar shots

I fixed your photos so they show up. You may want to have a look at the directions for how to post your photos in the FAQs (I've linked to the directions for Zooomr)

Nice shots! I like the second one. Is it HDR, or did it come out of the camera like that? Thanks for sharing, and welcome to DPS.

These are really lovely, but I love the second shot...something about a shady tree lined lane that speaks to me about times long past....at least for me.

Thank you so much, Nicole. After giving it a whirl, it seems a little easier to post a photo

The colors were not as bright and the value's were not as deep so I tweaked a little with the burn tool and barely gave each a mild contrast blast. Other than that, there was very little post production.

Thanks to all for the comments
