This shot is a bit static. The bird isn’t doing much. I think I would have waited for some movement. It was a good attempt.

I think you framed this well. The walkway is the best part of the photo. The line really draws you in.

The print looks great. The photo is lovely. Good job. This seems very professional.

This picture could be enhanced with a bit of contrast, but I don’t find the subject matter all that interesting. Maybe if you could see the other cats face a bit more it would improve the picture? I like your nature pictures much better.

I don’t like how the mountains (hills?) are chopped off in the middle. I think there is something here but you need to work a little harder at finding it.

Beautiful color! Nice shot. A bit fuzzy but that's all.

I agree with Lance. The baby's skin tone makes it look dead. Very creepy. And the baby's hand is a distraction since you can't see the rest of its face.

Wow! I have seen this done before but not very often. The spot you have chosen is beautiful. I think everything about this photo is perfect. The picture wouldn’t look the same without the trees in the bottom right of the frame and the space you left at the top of the frame is just right. This is just a gorgeous picture that can truly be appreciated by city dwellers who never see stars in the sky.

Very beautiful. I’d keep the reflections upside down but I’d crop out the sidewalk on the top of the frame just a bit. What would have really been cool was if someone had walked by so that you had a pair of feet at the top of the frame. Anyway nice photo.

I too agree with Carole. I would like to see her mouth included. I don’t think it would work if you cropped out her nose.

I like the lighting. Her eyes are very beautiful. I would crop out the borders and make the photo full frame so she doesn’t look like she is leaning against a white wall. The borders really take away from the photo. If you’re niece wanted to model, I’m sure this is a photo that she could use in her book. Nice Job.

You captured a nice scene. I don’t think I would change a thing.

Excellent! Sports are hard to shoot and I think you did a great job. The expression on the face of the guy on the ground is great.

This is a nice photo. I’m glad you didn’t center the X, however the white thing on the bottom of the frame is a distraction to me. It’s a fun use of lines and it’s great that you noticed them. I think B&W would have been better. Perhaps you can try changing it to B&W in Photoshop and see.

As a first attempt using new equipment it looks like you did a great job. I can’t comment too much on the technical side. Her face looks well lighted, no shadows, which is nice, and her skin tone looks great. However, I’m not sure this photo would make it into a portfolio. Maybe it’s her makeup. The lipstick seems to be wrong. Also the one eye seems to be made up more than the other one. Your model is very beautiful I would just get professional for...
