Are any of you A'holes gonna C&C this guy's frickin' pictures? He learned how to post, now how about some respect for his original request?
You could have started you know. No need to come in and just yell at everyone else; lead the charge, ya know?
As far as MY C&C goes:
#1 is okay. I would have preferred a bit more room around the subject, and I think it would have been stronger if the focus was on the tip, with the DOF fading towards the back, instead of the way it is now with the focal plane a bit behind the tip (leaving the tip out of focus). I'm not suggesting that the most foreground part of an image should sways be the part in focus, but or this image I think it would be better.
#2 is decent, but nothing special. I'm not sure I can suggest much
technically wrong with it, but it's kind of a standard bridge shot that I imagine several hundred other people have duplicated. This spot would be fun to visit at sunrise or sunset to really get a nice quality of light, and HDR techniques might be fun to play with too. Try backing off the zoom a little to get the horizon a little higher in the frame, and always make sure the horizon is level (unless you have a good reason not to, but while you're learning, I'd suggest that you don't have a good reason yet
).
#3 and #4 are just snapshots; the subjects are centered and they look like shots of opportunity rather than of planning. They're well-exposed but there's not much to critique artistically. How do
you feel about them? Why did you want to share them? Perhaps if we have some more info on these and what you were trying to do with them we can give you some more direction.
