I would tend to agree, so it's ok.

I'm trying to get better. This is my first real DSLR... I bought a photography book that's specifically for the D90... now it's just a matter of getting out there and taking them. If you look at the ones I've taken during the day with lots of sunlight they're much better... it's this evening, low-lighting that I'm really struggling with. And I don't have photoshop, so I can't even *try* to make them look better.

I don't even use Photoshop.

Have you downloaded the software that came WITH your camera? That's what I use. Just download that (it's what your pictures upload too, called PictureProject) jazzy software and it lets you crop, sharpen, brighten, color-boost, and change to B/W or Sepia. It's AMZAZING what that will do.

Here I took one of your pictures and did some slight touching up in the Nikon Software.

Your picture:

After touching up:

I couldn't do alot since I didn't have the original sizes to work with, but look how much a little touching up can do.

lizmo: no I never installed the software that came with the camera... maybe I should get around to that and see what's like. LOL.

As far as editing photos/correcting color, you can do that on Photobucket, too. Usually just clicking "auto correct" will help a lot... even though it's annoying to go through all of the pictures and click it. Meh, I think your pictures look nice. I recently got editing software, and I tend to over-edit to the max!

Awww... Midget needs to come out and teach Fozzie to swim!
