Markus, You won't get better until you try submitting to PUG. All levels of photographers are welcome, regardless of talent or expertise. You can actually watch people's skills improve month by month. So don't feel you need to be great to send something in. You can't get better by just looking, you've got to try DOING! Regards, Bob S. (Who has sent many less than satisfactory photos to PUG.)
