Have been enjoying your posts
Your images tend to be small and lifeless, washed out somehow. You may want to post a question in the forums asking for help on how to get your images more vibrant. We're guessing you are shooting under low light levels and may ned to use a flash in those cases. But there are people here who know much more about photography who can help you. One last comment. We would suggest you limit yourself to 20 or 30 images in a day. Too many images just clogs the system and the editors, who are all volunteers, can't do justice to all the requests. Spread your postings out over more days and you will get more detailed responses. Welcome - hope you are enjoying BugGuide!
