Hi guys, I'm new here. I'm new at photography. I really appreciate any feedback/critiques... :thumbup:

1 and 2 look good to me, I am not much into pictures of flowers though. 3 seems like it could use a much tighter crop, (there are many distracting thing in the background drawing attention away from the dog). Also, I prefer to see a photo of a person or an animal from their level (kneel down to eye level of the beast)

I like the composition of number 1! Though I wish those broken flowery things in upper left corner weren't there. The rest are boring (no offense), nothing going on. Busy background in #3, remember that your background is very important as well as your subject.

#1 - The lighting feels a little dull and I also agree that the broken bits in back should be removed.
#2 - Just kind of blah for me. There is no real context for the statue, so for me, the image doesn't really "say" anything.
#3 - Exposure looks good (maybe bump up the exposure a smidge bit in photoshop) but the composition isn't really doing anything. A tighter crop might help, but also a lower point of view helps out tremendously for animal photos.

Keep at it though!
