New to photography.

Woops, didn't even see there was a forum for beginners, this place is better suited for me I think..

I've only had a camera for four days, or so, so any constructive criticism is more than welcomed.
I'm using a Nikon D40 and a 50mm F/1.8D

I like number 2, i just wish the fish was in focus more, no movement down at the bottom of the fish, I like how you can still make out that it is a girl holding the fish up. I dont know what it is, but I like the last one as well. I just it just reminds me a lot where i grew up and spending my days fishing and being outside.

Thank you for sharing!

I like the composition in 1 and 7. I am not sure if you edited the color temp in pp or not. If not your white balance is off. Either way, I still kind of like it. Number 7 would also be a little better if the top of the hat and elbow wasn't cut off. (this happened in 2 also)

I also like 2, I wish it was a little sharper though.

You have a good eye for composition.

I don't think the "retro" look with the colour-curve-fiddling does that much for your shots.

1: needs some more contrast. The cat seems rather black. Using the "retro" look will do this to your shots.

2: Great shot, but a tad underexposed.

4 and 5 are blurry, 4 is a VERY boring pic

7 is nice but the purple channel is way overdone. Tone it down a bit.
