Beautiful shots Ray and welcome. However, I think you may want to post your shots in the Photo sharing section rather than the post processing and printing section. I'm pretty new too so what do I know? :-)

Ray,

First off, welcome! Glad to have you aboard!

Now, about your post. This is not the best forum to post them in. THIS forum is mostly for discussion about, well, post processing and printing. If you want to share your shots, please find the appropriate forum in the "Share" section.

I really recommed that you delete this post and resubmit the shots somewhere in "Share" If you want critical comment, then post them in "Critique Corner"

Since you are going to resubmit, then PLEASE shrink them down. They are still 3072 x 2048 pixels. That is way too big for us to see. Please reduce the size to NO MORE than 800 pixels in the longest dimention. When you do that, then you wont have to reduce the image quality so much.

So, to re-cap:

1) Delete this post. (If you cannot delete it, then edit it by replacing all the text with "Moved to Share" and unattaching the images.)

2) Re-size the shot to less than 800 pixels wide.

3) Increase quality.
