It's under exposed. Boost the exposure and repost it.

Thank you! By exposure you mean increasing the ammount of lights?

Meaning, you needed a slower shutter speed, or wider aperture, or higher ISO.

But you can adjust it after the fact in an image editor.

What about now?
I am not pro in software editing photos, so I use Picassa 3 " I am feeling lucky" tool:

Better.

You will need to learn post processing. GIMP is a free editor that is "comparable" to Photoshop. There are plenty of tutorials for it including video tut's on youtube.

The snow on the fence image on your website is under exposed as well. Snow is white.
Are you shooting in Auto, Semi-Auto, or manual? Do you know how to read your light meter? Snow, and other white things are tricky because your camera is programmed to make them grey. You need to remember this, and either adjust your settings, or use the exposure compensation function on your camera.

I am in a difficult time of my life now and I can't give to myself a time to "learn" with lots of dedications.. So tutorial will be for further time! But thanks for recommending the GIMP... I will take it to a try this weekend.

About the snow picture, I took it with my Point Shot cannon. It is really gray so I did not expected that much from a P&S camera. But now that I have my Pentax, I will try to put more better pictures, after I have made adjustments on my photos after suggestions, like yours! Thank you so much for the help!

I updated my portfolio online... check it there what you think...
