I just came across this website and wanted to post some of my pics to see what others think, offer feedback etc. It seems to be a well established group. These are just a very few of the items I have recently photographed and edited.

First, please number photos for ease of reference, makes the post look nicer as well.

These are awesome shots.

#1 seems a tad over-exposed but whatever
#2 Obviously a killer shot. What lens?
#3 Nice leading lines up to those mountains...I've never been to any mountains...just the foothills in Montana...where did you take these? or is that a secret locale?

EDIT: title of photo is Colorado Road so I guess I know where to look now. Didn't know they had mountains in Florida...jk

Welcome to TPF, I hope you enjoy your time amongst the TPF rabble-rousers.

Thanks,

The Blue Angels could have been shot an any number of airshows. I attend at least 6 a year and make sure that I see both the Angels and the Birds every season. The other two were in Colorado both on the drive to/from Pikes Peak. I would have used the Nikon 18-200 and the 80-400.

I've never had a chance to take jet photos like that. Do you have tips for me (or anyone else that may read this thread) into what to do to capture such a beautiful image?

1. Roadside Waterfall, Colorado

2. Summit Lake, Mount Evans, Colorado

What are the thoughts on some of these. I have never really thought about publishing them or trying to sell them, are any of them worthy of the attempt ?
