Whatever you're doing is just great, keep it up. Particularly like tree and the lamp, like the de-sat look of the river. If there's one thing I'd do to the trees, it'd be to try removing the foreground tree, just the foggy tree on its own. The lamp is lovely, if you had any more room on top of the lamp it'd be a perfect example of the rule of thirds.

What do I know?

You've obvioiusly got talent - go for it.

PS you've broken whatever inline images you had, they were fine first time!

They did show up for me earlier, remove the ?v=0 from the end of the url and they should be visible

i think number 1 with the lamp is great. i would like to see the full lamp in it (that doesn't mean it will be any better - LOL, i'd just like to see it).

I'm curious as to what number 3 by the river would be like in colour. looks good though.

lots of promise.

Cheers.

I like 1 & 2. I like the tree in the foreground. It's all down to taste I guess

Great picuters.
I really like the tree in a haze. If you just had lovered camera a little and moved it to the right... the shapes of foreground and the main tree are closing a little too much. But still it is very good shot!
Keep on shooting!

Number 1 - lamp - reminds me of the film the exorcist

, just need a guy in a long trench coat :P

Number 2 - tree, field - I'd be on the side of removing the framing tree (on the right side, and the small tree as well, as someone said a few steps to the left and retake it.)

These are just my personal taste, don't take me too seriously

Keep shooting (photo's not people that is

)
Cheers

Nice atmosphere in the shots and well captured. Keep up the good work!

Love the first two, great atmosphere.

Alanstrainor · 22-09-2007 11:38pm

I really love the first two, i'm a complete newbie to photography but i think they're great, i love the contrast in the second picture. The first is just deadly, i love the lighting and the atmosphere. Really nice work;)
Alan,
