(31,612 posts)and you will learn a lot to improve your skills as a photographer. It's a very congenial group and willing to offer advice and counsel. Plus you will be able to study photos that people post to discover techniques that help improve the quality of the photograph, no matter the subject or your equipment.

(9,426 posts)beautiful photos. I like the hawk on the wagon in "Spring storm approaching" "Piper arrives" "Raindrops on Rose" Heck, so hard to chose a favorite. Congratulations to all the photographers on beautiful entries.
