  1. Your great. Always try to expiriment taking pics from diferent angles


  2. You're very good.

    First photo: It'd be nice if you either didn't show the sun at all, or showed all of it. I'm not a big fan of how it's poking out behind the tree. Nice colors, though.

    Second photo: Very good. The color and detail is great. The only thing is, the background is too blurry. It wouldn't be so bad, it's just that the entire background is blurry - it makes it so there's less to look at in the photo.

    Third photo: This one is great. I can't think of any way to improve it. Good job! :]

    Fourth photo: Nice. It's not very original, though. And it'd be better if the entire flower was in focus. But overall, it's a good picture.

    Fifth photo: It's not bad, but I just don't find it very interesting.

    :]

  3. You're WAYY better than me (another aspiring photographer!) =]

    you could try photoshop, or if that's too extravagent, maybe online sites like photobucket to edit your pictures and make them better.

  4. yess.

    those are good : )

  5. Looks really good to me!

  6. Yeah, your composition is really good.  Very nice - but no tips from me yet...I'm not well taught in the subject.  

  7. i don't know anything about photography, but those pictures are absolutely BEAUTIFUL....Im totally serious...they should be in a magazine!

  8. Nice pics!

    The thing about photography and art is that there are so many interpretations of what is "good."  Ultimately, you are in control if you think it is good or not.  There are technical considerations and an advanced class in photography will help you refine your "eye" so to speak.  I've found in my own photography that some people relate to some pictures that I couldn't really care for and vice versa.  Art is so cool in that it's a way for an artist to express something to a viewer while a viewer gets to feel something--and it's not always the same emotion for the both of them.  I've found that if technically I like an image, I'm fine with everyone else has to say--good or bad.  And technique is something we all can keep learning and working on!

  9. 1: what's the interest?

    2: Love it. Nice detail. Next time, don't put your subject dead center. (google rule-of-thirds)

    3:This is great. Excellent depth and color. I think it would have worked better as a landscape shot as opposed to a portrait.

    4: Nice color and detail and composition. The leaves are a tad over-exposed though.

    5: Great contrast and a very interesting subject. Again, it's too centered and the background is under-exposed. But a beautiful shot still.

    Nice work!

  10. Could you be good? Yes. Are you good now? Not really.

    Here's what "good" looks like to me:

    Aim high! Set high standards and you definitely can be good - it's up to you.  

  11. first - i don't like how the sun pokes out, yet there's not a single ray of sunlight.

    second - beautiful, but use rule of thirds.

    third- it's okay, but a little busy.

    fourth- rule of thirds, and the flower should be more focused than the leaves.

    last- my personal favorite. i like how it speaks to me as serene and calming with something else i can't quite touch. it's good to make your viewers think. but use rule of thirds.

    i'm an aspiring photographer, but i'm pretty down to earth and open with harsh opinions, but you're really good. you just need some editing and more practice.

  12. I think your photos are beautiful, but I don't know if they are beautiful because of the photographer or because of the subject you are photographing.  If it is something that you enjoy doing, continue to do so, and if/when the opportunity presents itself to exhibit some of your work take advantage of it, and see how the general public critiques it.  You may also try and find a photography class near you, or if you are in college check the classes offered.  Most universities offer courses and degress in photography.  Either way your pictures are beautiful and you should continue to do what makes you happy.
