Took some photos last sat., I'd like to know, for each of the photos shown below, the good and bad things of them and if any of them look bad, what could have been done to get a better photo than it is now. Thanks a lot in advance.

One more thing, which do you like best of the above photos?
PS: All are taken with K10D+DA50-200mm, I was on a bridge, the only place to take photos.

...no answer, nothing so far.

i vote for the one without the crazy branding watermark.

The Water Mark just kills these. I'm sorry but it does. This forum is somewhat anti-water mark. If you do have one, you can have it noticeble but just barely.

Watermarks aside, I like the second one.

Yep, could do with using the "watermark removal tool" in PS.

You might also want to look at reducing the digital noise on these, and invest in either a faster lens or good tripod as they all seem a bit soft.

uh oh...
I was intended to make them transparent--didn't figure out a way.

Now I wonder, was it the typeface I used, the colour, or was it the watermark itself that kill these photos?

 

[BoblyBill]

Watermark itself. It's just way to obvious. Maybe if it was smaller in the corner and was transparent it would be ok. These are really nice pictures.

I voted for 2 but the watermark wrecks the image.

make it less strong in colour (e.g. B&W) and less central so it interferes less with the content of the image.

Thanks, I will take note of your suggestions.

Thanks for your feedback.

Regarding the size of watermark, would the following be acceptable?
