This is my first time doing this and i'm excited!!! I'm TOTALLY a beginner but I looooveeee taking photos and hope to get better at it. I have a Nikon D60 and like I said- I'm just learning and getting to know my camera so I almost ALWAYS shoot on AUTO.... I'd like to change that and get more creative but right now I don't even REALLY know what an apeture and fstop and all that is :)

Here's my pic from The Temple of Heaven in Beijing China:

I love this cute pic of these sweet little girls but I took it with the flash and they seem a little washed out and the sun in the background is kinda making the lighting weird. All I did to edit this was crop it in camera. I'd LOVE any suggestions. And honestly, I can't tell y'all any of the EXIF data cause I don't know where to find that! :) HELP! Thanks in advance for your comments!!! Oh, I have photoshop elements 6 for Mac. And i'm still learning that too! This is all new to me y'all!
LOVE,
