These photos were taken with a Nikon Coolpix 5200 point and shoot camera. Probably not up to the high standards of a lot of the other images here but imo they are some of the best I have taken with it....
I'm definitely looking forward to getting my D80....

You could probably save some detail in the shadows with
PS - that first one would have been a nightmare to expose even with the D80!

I did try some post processing with the first one and it did bring out more detail in the shadows but the rest then looked overexposed. It may be that i need more experience with paintshop...

I haven't used Paintshop but I'm sure that you can apply layer masks. This way you can duplicate the original image, apply your changes and then only reveal those areas of the updated image that need to be.
I could give it a try in Photoshop if you would like, just place the original online somewhere and PM me. I'll send it right back.

Cool, thanks for the offer. Could you pm me an email address to send it to? (Can't find a decent file sharing app atm.)
