ok, so I'm like a noob, I've never taken any classes or even owned a camera until now so I really have no clue what I'm doing. Please, feel free to give me some feedback, comments and criticisms will be greatly appreciated.
Sky is lovely. I agree with Slushie about straightening the ground. It might be a more interesting photo not centered so much or with a different perspective.
I have been there and sure enjoyed the ride up and back down. Your image does not seem focused well enough, and I think your camera or lens needs cleaning, Just my humble opinion.
