Hi! I just posted my first photos here today too. I really like the second photo, I love the reflections. The first looks like a cool advert.

Welcome to the DPS family Bacon

You have started at the perfect place where friendly people can view your shots and leave wonderful encouraging comments. I think you have made a great start with these shots the colours are vibrant and the composition is really good for both shots. I like the reflection in the last one. TFS these pics with us and I look forward to seeing more from you.
