Are these any good? They're the best of this week's shots.

This is my bunny rabbit Pepsi, she has cataracts in here eyes but loves modelling for photographs:

This, I just found unusual and caught my eye:

This is probably just me still being in awe of my new lens:

And simularly:

I think that the composition on all of these photos is weak, mostly because in all of them your subject right in the centre of the shot. Did you consider mixing it up in terms of where you place the subject in the frame, i.e. by moving it to the side, or shooting it vertical instead of horizontal, etc....?

Cute rabbit, either way.

Jackie, have you done any reading on photographic composition or the elements of design and visual organization?
You might find it tremendously helpful to move your photography forward.

Jackie, I have to agree with Bitter and Blacksheep.... looks like you have some of the technical basics down. Time to look at some other things (but don't stop practicing the other things)...

Basic Photography Techniques - Photographic Composition, Center of interest, Subject placement, Simplicity, Viewpoint and camera angle, Balance.

#1: Actually i was confused about bunny...which part of her face i am seeing........ trimming the ears of a rabbit makes it no more a rabbit
#2: Using al low DOF is a good idea...keeping the object of interest at the center is a bad idea...
#3:I liked it, without judging by rules.....
#4: Could have been better

All the Best for your journey

Hmmm, i had a feeling I'd get lots of negatives. *sigh*

Thanks for your help guys, I shall keep trying! And will read those links.

Don't view them as negatives - view them as constructive guidance. Attitude toward critique is very important and whilst you might not realise it how you treat and associate with it will affect how you are able to respond to it. A more positive approach and you're far more likely to pick up - react to it and thus improve from it.
