I have deleted all the offending post.

As a learner, the heart of the learner takes in all comments no matter they are positive or negative. The main thing is be humble and learn. Take the negative comments and try to see what went wrong. I have already posted so many sticky threads to guide others to the fun of Night Photography. Take that as a starting point. I am sharing all my knowledge to save shorten the learning curve for others because I faced similar problems before. Take the time and effort to read through them.

Next, since you have taken the effort to bring your camera out to shoot, why not put in a little more effort and try to do some Quality Check on the photos before posting and that is how we can learn to improve. If a child never put in the effort to learn to walk, he can never learn to walk properly in his lifetime and always stuck at that stage.

Well said,I have always respect ppl without reserves. But via verse. Comment to me is fine,do it the right way. I have never develops any negative feeling with u and hold high esteem of it.Learn how to respect others before ppl do. If a novices could tell what's good picture than there is no professional. Lastly, U have done a very good job, and bravo y:thumbsupu.

Learning myself, but here are my few cents,

1. Don't be too ambitious. Start with the basics. Learn to take the photo with good sharpness and exposure 1st. This is the basic 'technical' portion. WB also falls here, and I find it hard to accept that processing from RAW gave all the odd colors. Even using a simple program like PICASA will not give such odd colors. RAW does not immediately equal good. JPEG is very post processable as well. Forget about PP for now and go for the technical basics.

2. Next, go for composition. Rule of 3rds, Golden Triangle, Leave out items that don't add to picture (ie. blank sky), etc

3. Slowly play with PP. Picasa is fine. No need to be overly greedy with large changes in curves, leves, etc. This is one of the reasons I recommend you PICASA. Photoshop can be quite a heavy battle axe to use in a fencing match.

Gd Luck

Hi, thks for all the comments, since after so many set back, I already temporary not using photoshop,it is something even much easier photoscape no chance to adjust so much curve ,it is just plain direct from the press button available in the software itself.Will look into the WB again.Will be even more careful next time.For ur information already shift to Jpeg shooting.
