Various Pictures from a Newbie!!!

[NatD]

Have been having a good nosey round and am fascinated by some of the pictures you guys are taking, and am interested in the comment and feedback from some of the more learned member.

By far I am not a keen / ameteur photographer, but enjoy taking snaps.

Here are a few I have taken over the past couple of years that I like, mostly with a Canon Ixus 400: -

Brandeberg Gate:

Yosemite National Park, USA

Pacific Highway, California

Flatiron Building, NYC (taken with an old 35mm camera and scanned in)

Some lovely shots there NatD, the first one of Brandeberg Gate is stunning, my only suggestion would be to straighten it a little as it does appear to be leaning to the right a bit. I do like the shadows created from the pillers and the people. Shooting into the sun can cause lens flare which I think is visible on the right hand side of the image (seems to be a fringe there) A lens hood may of reduced this. Overall though cracking shots all of them

The pic of the gate is good but could do with being straightened and cropped slightly.
