    Steve,
    Excellent! Love the sky in the third one, and the backlit grass in the fourth one looks great in the foreground. Only minor suggestion I'd offer is NOT centering the sun in the photos...use the Rule of Thirds, and I think the compositions would be better...other than that, I love 'em. Take care,

    #3 is gorgeous! I love the backlit grass. I'll make a suggestion too, since you're new to this game, heh. ;) Try using a neutral density filter, especially with pics like #2. It'll keep your sky looking pretty much the same and help expose the darker part at the bottom better. :):

    Jen ,
    Thanks for your comments and suggestion .
    My camera is a Konica Minolta Dimage Z5 , [discontinued ] , so I'll have to see if it is possible to get such an item for it [ I don't even have a clue what a neutral density filter is , but I suppose I'll have to find out .]
    I'm still astounded at the quality of some of the photography on this site , even if the cameras are excellent - some folk sure do have an eye for it , and are very inventive in getting their shots .
