I am learning please bare with me

You're doing fine with posting now. If this is still related to the first post you could put 3 or 4 photos in the same post. (next time) ;o)

I see now from the date that it is from possibly WWII, correct?

Yes it was WW2

I was not affended by your remark over exposure any advice is very welcome I have looked at your web site and your pictures are beautiful thanks again regards john

You've come to a great place to learn as much as you want. There are some excellent photographers here and most important for me was the technical expertise of so many people here. I knew nothing about any form of Post Processing when I got my camera. I had done professional photography years ago with 35mm. Long story but I lost everything I owned (camera stuff) so I never recouped and just had cheapo p&s cameras for years and then finally I got this E-300 and Oh what fun I am having. Just so much to learn! There is no question I've ever asked that these fine folks here haven't answered for me. And I read nearly every post I can and some of it soaks in some doesn't. ;o) Hope you are having great fun with your new camera John.

Thank you so much for your kind words about my galleries too. ;o)

Hi Jonny,

Is this pic just too see if you have got the linking working properly, or would you like some comments/critisim (constructive) on this pic?

Also, it can often help with suggestions if you also post the EXIF data.

Cheers

Give up Sigi's, they're bad for you....

If you are interested in tips, I would recommend a little sharpening and saturation increase. Look at the image again after that. If it still doesn't have the "right snap" it might then benefit from a slight contrast increase. These are simple, basic adjustments. When you are comfortable with those types of adjustments consistently, then you can start learning some more advanced enhancements. The most important thing is to practice on a "copy" and not the original. Also don't feel that you have to leave the photo in the same format that the cameras shoots it. You can crop in on the sides, and reduce the distraction of the bushes in the background so the subject stands out more.

And nothing wrong about learning. I'm doing it constantly. Been taking photos for most of 40 years now and still learn a lot of neat tips from folks here. (was out of it for a few years so having to redevelop my creative and discriminating eye)

In the end though, the most important thing is to do what satisfies you.
