I'd like to improve my photography by submitting these pictures for your comment. I'd like to know what you would have done to make it a better picture. These are not my best pictures, but in each case I was trying to capture a subject as best I could. Maybe I could have done it better. What would you have done differently?
The pachinko place down the street. I wanted to show the contrast with the ricefields surrounding it. I have a lot of trouble getting my pictures straight :-( I like the perspective but don't like the electricity pylon in the background.
The rice has all just been planted.
Dancing with Asimo. I think I should have been much closer and just got the kids and the robot.
Motegi speedway. I just liked the way the chairs looked.
Playing with flash photography. I couldn't make it look good with manual setting so I chose auto exposure. Normally I would crop the flash reflection out, but I left it in to show my (failed?) attempt at slave firing a flash.
You can view the pics here if you are interested in exposure details.

I'm especially interested in feedback on style. eg, get closer, try a lower camera angle, crop it this way etc. I'm also intersted in post processing (haven't really started on any of that yet), exposure settings etc.
Thank you for your comments
cheers,
david
