First Time Poster - NYC

[nutsngum]

So this is my first real time using an SLR at all. Never read any books or taken any classes or such so please go easy on me! haha. But actually, I would like some constructive criticism, stuff I did that was good, stuff I need to improve on etc.

Thanks!

Is there any particular photo that you want for critique? Maybe you can post a small handful on this page so you can get a quick response. I think links to large albums may discourage viewers.

Good idea, sorry about that

To start, sorry I wasn't sure how to post them as thumbnails or attachments

There is a little yellow button in the window

that opens once you hit the REPLY button, not the quick reply box. Put your links in the window that pops up and your set!

I really like your first photo that you picked. Like the night colors.
Second photo looks like it was shot in the middle of the day. Not a good time for photos due to harsh lighting.
Nice composition on the third photo; wish there was more color.
Like the speeding taxi on your fourth photo. Pretty neat to do IMHO.
Hope that helps you a bit...

Hope you don't mind me putting them here...

I love the night shot. How long was the exposure on that one? Did you use a tripod?

i was using 1/40 or 1/60 without a tripod.
