Please review the
Critique Forum Rules. While we don't get too excited about a couple images, it's difficult to review 4 at once. Also, in the future, please try to include your EXIF data. That said:
#1. The typical "self with camera in the mirror shot". There's really not much to say on this one, except I'm curious as to why the Nikon label on the camera strap was edited, but the Nikon on the camera itself is still backwards?
#2. This reminds me of the alien from the movie
Predator.
#3. Warrants the most critiquing, as some effort was put into the composition here. Nice job on the 3/4 face shot, which is technically sound. You always want to try to turn the head so that the nose doesn't break the edge of the face, and get as much of both eyes as possible. Whether done on purpose or not, nicely done. However, don't have your subject looking off into space. It makes me wonder if there's a fly on the wall that is distracting her. This same shot, only with her looking at the camera, slightly off-camera, or even looking down would've been more dramatic.
#4. What are you trying to say with this photo? What did you find interesting about this scene? You've left me guessing.
And this isn't criticism, it's sound advice that applies to all of your photos. We often discuss the difference between a snapshot and a photograph, between Average Joe and the photographer. Your artistic eye has seen
something in all 4 of the above that made you press the shutter. Don't make us try to figure out what you saw, make it obvious. You have the who, what, when, and where...but you've left out the
why.
Of these, #4 is a prime example, because I see nothing here. I asked what you found interesting about the scene. I have to assume that it's the walkway, but
why? Was it the pattern of the boards? Was it the symmetry of the pillars, or their shadows? If so, then focus on the walkway and forget about the other stuff. Get in close. Lay on your belly on the ground and get the shot you really want us to see.
