First examples.

It was too nice to have been inside yesterday.

Been lurking, reading, learning and trying.

Here are some of the results of those efforts. Link to full size images.

1) the pic has a lot of greenery so the subject does not stand out...grass is too green and a little distracting

4) this one is the best one of the lot which I think.. but still the water in front is a little bit distracting due to reflections..

Keep on shooting good luck.. !!!
