Good idea, Linda! But, how about identifying the locations? Just the name?

Some nice shots, Linda. Several seem to have a color cast. How do you set your White Balance? It can be tricky when you have a lot of contrast in the image.
Tuscan Muse wrote: Hmmm, white balance...... Always set in the middle. I will try adjusting that. Thanks John!
What camera are you using? In the menu, under white Balance, you should find a list of options: Auto, Daylight, Tungsten, Fluorescent Cloudy,... I would try choosing the one that seems most appropriate. I find I shoot a lot with Cloudy...

Let us know what you find. It may be time to step up...
