So I bought this Nikon D5200 late last night. these are the first shots I have taken with it. I am using Corel Paintshop Pro X3 for editing. The only editing done was contrast saturation and image border, I am not too fancy with this program yet.

Please tell me what you think of the pics and or editing. Don't hold back, criticism welcome as well.

Welcome Maroon. You have some very nice pictures. Need to work on composition - avoid putting things smack in the middle.

And just a friendly word, when posting a photo for feedback you want to put one up so that that one photo can be discussed.

Again, welcome and keep shooting.

Nice shots and agree, it would be easier to critique one at a time. But your off to a good start. The last picture leaves me wondering what she is looking at or stepping over. The last one is a little dark as well, maybe bring the shadows up a little bit.

Very nice! I think the sky could be a tiny bit less over-exposed, though. Not to make it visible but to keep a little more of the nice looking warm sun.

Well done :) The colors seems on the trees could be a little warmer, maybe?

Beautiful sky! Love that as a background. I dont mind her being placed in the middle, but the eyes are a biiiit dark. But I understand its because of the light.

Its a sweet image but she/the foreground are a little to dark and colors are washed out. Its hard shooting against a light background, I know, I've done the same :)


You are of to a great start, now we wanna see more!

Really liking the third shot. I'd crop out that foreground, though, at the bottom right. That shot is a candidate for a vertical cropping, as well, I think; though I'm back and forth on that idea. Your shots would be a bit better if you'd move your subject off center. Rule of Thirds and all that maybe.
