You didn't fuck them up enough with shooping for beethy to like them.

I really like this picture. The only thing I would change is not having so many of the big rocks in the foreground. I would lift the camera up a few feet higher while keeping it pointed in the exact same direction so that the closest rocks leave the frame from the bottom.

3 months and you have a 30D, 10-22, a 70 something and 50 1.8 prime? You have some cash to burn boy.

That being said, you have some excellent shots.

>>134472
Excellent. You have some rather distracting blocked shadows, but there's really nothing you could do about that without hdr.
Solid composition that combines an interesting foreground and background. Many people make the mistake of thinking clouds make a picture, but it's the clouds interaction with the rest of a photo that makes a photo with them good.

>>134473
Another great shot, though I'd disagree slightly on the composition. Perhaps from a lower view point that puts the camera even closer to the water and removes that top black bar of information. This just might be my personal taste though.

>>134475
Decent, but a little boring. I can't give a critical response why. Maybe the shapes of the bars without detail doesn't contrast well with the sky?

>>134476
boring, kinda typical street shot without any creative composition

>>134478
Lines leading to interest but because the shadows are so heavily blocked there's nothing interesting to look at, destroying the composition.

>>134479
Interesting, but not strong artistically. The lamp and the edge of the building provide nothing to the photo but are present anyway. Seems like there is more you could've done with this scene.

>>134480
Worst photo of the bunch. Busy, rather uninteresting, and the composition is a mess. Seems like you shot it at a whim without thought.

>>134484
Love this one. Great composition and well captured. The color quality however almost makes it look CG.

>>134486
Decent, but rather typical. Would be better with the light in the right 1/3 area instead of slightly offset from center.

Overall you have some great shots and potential =D

Don't take me wrong, it is sure a nice and good pic, but on my trip in Canada i took about 10 pics like this every day. I am missing something interesting/unusual/funny/exciting. My opinion..
