Okay I hate to admit this but it has been so long since I have taken much beyond snaps I have completely forgotten how to do some more advanced editing in Elements. Here's the help I need: 1) I want to get one of these blown up into a canvas (which one would you recommend) 2) I really need...

I'm quite liking the "on the beach" and the first of your boys. I will say they are a bit dull and could do with a contrast increase.

Welcome. I title the first one "gluttony"! Great set.

Thanks. With that in mind I'll go take a look at what else I have. When they are in formation they are supposed to be no more than 18 in. apart so getting each of them separately is nigh on impossible.

Just a little peek about the corner. Great dof but I think he could use to be a bit lighter.

Number 5 is just great! Superb job. The lighting is a bit dull but it sounds like it couldn't be helped.

It's gotta be #5 for me. The horse is very keen and is obviously enjoying himself!

Thanks Viper. I now want to try my hand at motorsport. These were just with a 200, I'm really pushing hubby for a 400! I've also got a pic with the one inverted directly in back of the one right side up so it just looks like the one plane has landing gear on top and bottom. Funny but not...

I've never tried to shoot planes flying past at 500 mph and I'm pretty chuffed with some of the results. Let me know if you see something I could really do different as I'm usually taking pictures of breathing things! I wish I could show this to you in full size it's crystal clear...

I'm loving the lights on the trees. I do think some more people would have drawn me in a bit more but I still like it quite a bit!

Thanks guys that is my favorite too! It's good to know I haven't lost my touch even if I've lost my mojo.

I went to the US capitol and here are a few of my favorites. All of these are straight from the camera so the levels may be a bit off. Washington Memorial Abstract The Whitehouse - Obama's House The Capitol Rotunda Washington Monument in Reflecting Pool Any comments good...

2 & 4 for me. Great set all in all.

That is definitely an awww shot!

Seems as if #9 is a love or hate. I love it. You really get a sense of the crowd while still understanding why they are there. Great stuff.
