Hello I am new here and figuring out where to begin.

Hello and welcome!
Great shot! I really like the B&W conversion. :

Thank you - at the risk of being thrown out I will tell you it is actually black and white film shot with a red filter on my dinosaur 1968 Minolta.....I love that camera.

Do you have any shots of the swedish country side?

Hi there Haystack, welcome to dgrin

That's a great shot! thanks for posting. Just so you know, we never throw anyone out for posting, we want you to post more, okay?

Have fun around here, some information about how do do pretty much anything on dgrin can be found here, Not there? search, or ask us!

Thank you, this is a very global community!

Please feel free to critique me - I have trouble telling whether my black and white contrast is quite right.

Yes, it does.

But the more important reasons for linking rather than attaching are:

1. saves space on dgrin servers
2. you can show off bigger and nicer versions. because of reason 1, we keep the attachment limitations very strict.

welcome!

Hi there Haystack.......... when your image was opening I thought it was a birds nest I like the way you have captured the curled up wire.
Hope you find the forum a great way to not only learn but to share as well.
Looking forward to seeing more posts from you in the very near future
