2. Thanks!

It's easy to take good pictures at Yosemite, though, all you have to do is hold your camera level and push the shutter...

3. I think it's a little more than that.

You definitely have a good eye for composition. :hi:

4. Thanks, or is it actually that I have

a good eye for cropping in Photoshop...? I'm just an amateur photographer but I'm pretty good at Photoshop, which I have been using since version 1.0.7 came out in 1989. I usually tweak my photos endlessly in Photoshop before quitting and I crop them drastically to get rid of anything that is distracting or not interesting. Thanks for the compliment though, I appreciate it!

5. That's still a part of the process

in creating a photo with excellent composition, so I stand by my initial assessment. :)

7. I just got done spending two full days in Yosemite

I'm now in San Francisco. I highly recommend Yosemite to anyone for photography. It was a great experience and you never run out of things to shoot.

8. So true...

every time you turn around something catches your eye... and the light is constantly changing, so things look different an hour later - and vastly different 6 months later. Really an amazing place.

9. Wow. Beautiful.

Despite the majesty of the landscapes, I think my faves are the splendid ones of Fern Spring.

Take a bow!

10. Thank you. I am just an amateur photographer,

nothing in the league of Ansel Adams, who took a famous photo of Fern Spring so long ago... but I think I'm pretty good at Photoshop, having used it since version 1.0.7 came out in 1989, and good at correcting and eliminating mistakes and flaws in my pictures. But thanks I appreciate your comments!
