Hi I'm Shelly

Hello all Pentaxians.


I'm looking forward to learning and gaining experience from you as I'm not experienced in any way or form and would love to show my photographs to you with the hope of some helpful critiques.I basically point try to focus and shoot.


Was given my camera many years ago when we were managing a game lodge, now retired I have brought it out again and would love to develop some skills.

Just a little nervous about the size of my photo's before loading - like 2.64MB so how do I resize them?

The attachment system will automatically scale and compress them for you if you don't want to spend extra time scaling them

Hi Shelly, and welcome to Pentax Forums. I'm sure you'll find a great deal of help here.

For starters, here's a link that explains how to upload photos to this site: How to upload / link photos - BEGINNERS START HERE - PentaxForums.com

You should be able to reduce the size of your photos by using just about any photo editing software.

Thank you Adam will try to add photo's shortly. Just a little concerned as to where I should be posting them to to get some feedback.
