		| | Here's two older shots of mine I took with a point-and-shoot digital camera a few years ago. See what you think:

 While spinning there, post a link to your photos. These are pretty big for the forums. That or post them on DPC in your profilio section.
 Lots of ppl have dial-up and this bogs up the site. :)

		| | Jonathan - Of the two I like Flower1.jpg the best.  The empty darker area at the bottom adds a sense of depth.  Some enhancements for me would be to crop off the right about 15-20% to lose the dead flower head and this would also reposition the main subject to an off-centered position.  The top-right leaves would then form leading lines diagonally into the image and balance the composition some.  The center flower seems a little soft, maybe out of focus?  Some selective sharpening could help there. 
 Flower2.jpg could be more interesting if you could see all of the subject item - portrait instead of landscape orientation could have done that for you.
 
 Why the interest in photos that are a couple of years old?  Just curious...
