I've never used Premiere Elements (I use Nero for my video editing needs), but Adobe prides itself on "user-friendliness", so I think you will enjoy using it.

Image 1 is a bit of an "optical illusion" (at least, to my eyes) due to the perspective of being much higher than the building, and capturing too much of the background. Maybe it would have "toned-down" if taken in landscape mode?

Image 2 - too much "hills", and not enough of the building, which I also think is too far-right to immediately draw the eye towards it.

Image 3 - a much closer crop than image 2, which I like. That said, perhaps lacking a wee bit of contrast to "pull" the shot a tad. I'm not familiar with Marche in Italy, but of the places I've been to in Italy, the roof tiles are a bit more red/terracotta-coloured, so perhaps a slight tweak of red should help it along?

They are only my opinions and observations, but pay absolutely no attention to me... I'm getting old, senile, and quite possibly myopic and colour-blind too!! Apart from that, I feel as good as I did 30 years ago!!

Knowing Adobe, they've dropped the price on PSE and bundled it with Premiere Elements to clear existing stocks, then in about 2-3 months' time, they will launch version 12 on us! Mind you, at £40-odd quid, bite their hand off for it!!

Is the wee bit of lens-flare meant to be in the image?

What Barrie said re pic 2. If you need to give the images a title, for no.1, I'd plump for SPANNERS ARE FOR NUT-JOBS, and no.2 would probably be SOCKET TO ME BABY!

As suggested, 3M make a product called COMMAND, which I think will be suitable for your needs. Here is a link.

Have you tried asking the company that printed them for you? They might be able to offer advice and/or that service, or at least point you in the right direction.

Nadeem - go to this link and download the relevant file (Win or Mac). You should then be able to convert your dng files to jpeg.

Nadeem - Like the other guys have already said, 64Gb may be a bit of a behemoth for your camera to handle... Typically, a jpeg will measure on average 4-5 Mb - approx 200 images per Gb.. Do you seriously intend to take and store 12,800 jpegs on one card?? Most of us here will (at a push) go no higher than a 16Gb card, and from a "reputable" (Sandisk, Kingston, etc) card manufacturer, although I've recently been using Pretec cards. I'd recommend you use the 64Gb card for use in something like a tablet or smartphone, and only for storing large chunks of data (movies, for example) on it, using the card only on occasions. Get yourself a couple of 8GB 0r 16Gb cards. Honestly, it's worth it! Imagine losing all 12,800 jpegs from that card because it became so badly corrupted that the files become irrecoverable? Also consider making back-ups of your shots onto recordable media - once again, using well-known brands, and avoid the discs that they sell in the pound shops!

I like the reflections in the first 3 shots!
