2. It's ok but i really do think the reflection takes away from the storm. Apart from that it's fine!
3. looks good! keep practicing!
4. i think its awesome
5. take away the glare from the window and i think it's really good
6. Yeah its good, accept the reflection as you already said. Better than when i first started, just keep practicing and you'll be pro in no time
7. nice interesting
8. just some photoshop work cause of the sun, your lightening, and that reflection. It's kind of dark.
9. It is ok. Next time try to find a place with no electric poles and wires:P
10. you wouldnt normally think that a picture of a telephone pole would be pretty, but the way you took it made it look gorgeous. :):)
11. It's pretty good. I love the whole shadowing thing you have going on. In the future, just in case u didn't know this alreay, but if you want to focus more clearly on an object, you can press the camera button halfway down, and then wait until it's green around the box, and then aim the object a little bit off to the side, so you get some scenery of the background in too, and then continue pressing the button.
12. ya thats good for an expert...the only thing is the reflection but thats not ur fault
13. Considering it looks like it was taken from a bus, it is very nice. It is all about capturing the moment and that picture did it. If you want to go artsy with it, the reflection and the fan in the top right corner give it a uniqueness. Good job : )
14. its cool but its something like that people would take a picture of because its pretty. But a REALLY good idea is to do something that people wouldnt really notice. Like if there (for example) was a statue of a man blowing a horn and you are looking at it from a certain angle, and you see there is clouds in the sky that just look like they are connecting to the horn. Like the horn is blowing smoke or dust. It looks amazing. Its called being a photographer with a keen eye. :) Its a good idea to think about the things that you wouldnt think of on a daily basis.
15. Hmmm. the overall idea was good. i can see what you are trying to catch in the photo; your only problem is doing just that. The first point, which you seem to already know is your reflection from inside wherever you were standing. this not only distracts from the picture, but causes the focus to be off and perspective not to have a focal point. if you see something that's worth taking, go and get it. Don't just try and work around obstacles like being inside. The second point is the harsh light, or should I say lack of color range. You want to have a good variety in photos, in composition and color, and maybe this could be a point that you could improve upon. Imagine that this will be a black and white photo- there would be little contrast, correct? Perhaps try for a different angle that would allow for a more varied color range. Also, the composition is confusing; the entire bottom doesn't add to the picture except as a contrast, whereas the focal point is really pushed towards the top. Try are guide the eye throughout the photo, keeping composition uniform throughout. Lastly, I would perhaps comment on the lighting. The shot has AMAZING potential to have very drastic lighting, but the way to highlight this is not to put it in the center. the brightness makes the eye want to skirm away from the picture instead of search around it, which is probably the opposite of what you want. Try and put the light source, if it is that bright, in a corner so that it adds to the rest of the photo, highlighting subtle differences in shadow and color throughout the picture. You want the light source to compliment, not dominate. But for a first work, the inner eye was amazing. you obviously know what makes a good shot- just work on capturing it :)
16. Very interesting
17. I like it with the reflection. However there is a little too much sky, crop off a little on the top. Rule of thumb is if your eye does not find a point in a picture to focus on as a theme or follow a given flow within a picture, there is a small problem. The picture itself is nice but I am uncertain what to focus on as the point of interest. Still a B+ or more. I would play with the contrast of the houses to see if all dark or more detail helps or hurts the flow. However a little too much sky with nothing interesting happening.
