Finally Created My Gallery

[branch124]

I finally had the guts to do it tonight. I've been so hesitant (embarassed). Not that I think you're all going to laugh at me...I know you're all very nice people, right? RIGHT? :D I know you are. I'm just definitely not at your level yet. I'm not a great photographer or photshopper, but I LOVE it and am still learning so much.

I've included some pictures of my attempts at a few tutorials on here. Again, not the greatest, but boy oh boy did I have a ton of FUN doing it! :p

Thanks for reading my rambling...(I ramble when I get nervous)....

Hey Brandi, Nothing wrong with what you have going on in your gallery. Very nice work and the breakout photo is really good. They are hard to do and you did a nice job. All the photos are great. Keep on sharing your work.

Brandi, that's a great start to your Gallery. I certainly wouldn't be embarassed! Love the Diamond Head picture and your niece. They all came out great. I'm going to love seeing pictures of Hawaii..it's so beautiful there!

Hi Brandi. :)

I sure didn't have anything that good when I started mine. :rolleyes:
Everything looks great. :D Isn't it such fun to learn new things?

No laughing here, Brandi,

You obviously had fun with these and show a lot of imagination. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.

One picky comment - you might want to try just a bit of straightening on the horizon of your beautiful main image. It doesn't need much, just a touch.

Rusty :)

Brandi,

You have a GREAT start to your gallery even though you are handicapped with such an awful scenic location. (Just kidding ;)) I lived in Hawaii for several years and these images bring back many fond memories. Your presentation and effects are wonderful. Keep up the good work!

[branch124]

Thank you everyone, for such nice comments and encouragement! I will definitely be working on more techniques, I just have so much fun with it. I learn a lot from all of your postings!

Rusty, I will work on straightening that horizon. Don't know how yet, but will figure it out and repost! Ahhh, another project I'm excited to work on. thank you so much for pointing it out to me! :D

Oh talented one.....I started my gallery a couple of weeks ago, and mine looks like a beginner one. Yours DOESN'T! Apart from that little fact, I love your images and it's nice to 'meet' you.
