This is the most interesting of the three photos because you are using the foreground of the picture. I also like the contrast between the old ship and the new skyscrapers.

 

But I'm a little confused as to which subject you want me to look at. The ship is framing the skyscraper in the background, and the skyscraper is the subject with the most light, so the skyscraper gets my immediate attention. But the skyscraper is out of focus and the shipwreck is in focus (and also a more interesting subject), so my eye wanders back and forth.

 

I'm not sure how to solve this problem, but maybe you could move even closer to the wreck and show me some detail which would reveal the decay of the ship. By moving closer to the subject in focus the skyscrapers would become even more blurred which would help me prioritize which subject to look at.

 

Another idea would be to use a telelens (maybe 300mm) and move further away from the boat. This way you would be able to show more of the boat, and at the same time blur the background with a large aperture (small f-number).

 

When you are shooting non-moving subjects - especially at night you should use a tripod (even though your lens has IS). Another way to get the wreck sharper and more in focus is to use an off-camera flash. The flash would illuminate the wreck without affecting the background.

 

I think you have found an interesting subject. Try taking a lot of photos from different angles, different focal length and different times of the day/night and see how it affects your photos.

Great photo. Is it real or is it staged?

The color highlight the children (and the flags), but at the same time attract attention to your teqnique. Instead I would convert the whole picture into black and white and then blur the background in Photoshop. That way you will highlight the children without getting attention to your teqnique.

This portrait was taken as part of a story about teachers in

difficult classes.

Brilliant composition, and very original. First I didn't see the portrait, but then I saw it. If you gave the face a little more light in Photoshop, it would be easyer to see that it is a portrait. Excellent picture.

Nice expression and gesture with his hands. The background is also fine and adds despription to his personality. But it looks like there are some blown higlights in his forehead.

Beautiful model and composition. I would like a little more expression in her face though. And I think the light is a little to harsh. If you put a reflector down to the right, I think you would have gotten more light into her eyes and at her neck.

Sensual and evocative. Very nice composition.

Diabolic. Very impressive.

Excellent.

Wonderfull portrait. So much expression.

Great photo. Looks like an ikon. What do you do to make the photo look like a painting?

This is not a good photo, it's a great photo. The lighting is very dramatic. The posture of the hands empathize her unique expression. If you have any more pictures with this quality, I would very much like to see them.

Beautiful model, wonderfull shot. Maybe you should remove the dark line that goes into her chin. I like the troll.

According to Websters dictionary "gay" also means "excited", "merry", "lively" and "artfully brillant". So I think, James comment was meant as a funny compliment.

Beautifull colors, great composition and the grain add to the mood. This one works for me.

Any comments are welcome.

Beautifull light and color. Very evocative and poetic.

 

I think I would have cropped it a little tighter to remove some of the distractions.
