1) Shot with Olympus VG-110 on auto mode, in a sunny winter day - late morning.
I wanted to capture the moment when the railroad worker gives the "ok" for the train to leave the station. I was a little excited and anxious waiting to capture the moment because I was not sure how the worker will react. He saw me and knew I was going to take a photo but in the end I think he didn't care too much about that. I didn't frame the whole train wagon because I wanted the train schedule written on it, to be easy readable.
Overall, I like the photo. If I would take the shot again, I would try losing the shadow from the left side. It is coming from the train station building. I would do that by taking the picture from a different angle or at a different time of the day.
2) Shot with the same camera, again on auto mode a little bit later that day.
I'm not really sure what this old man was doing on the bench. Maybe eating, maybe reading the newspaper, maybe just trying to catch some sun and enjoy nature. I thought it's nice and tried to capture the moment. I didn't think too much about the composition. Once I looked at the image on my computer, I saw that I could improve it with a little crop. I like how the picture is divided into three parts(trees/grass/leafs) all having different colors.
If I would take the picture again, I would try to frame it better in the first place to avoid loosing time to crop. Also, I think it would look better if it would be taken during morning with less light coming through.
Any honest critique is welcome! thnx
