Some potential here. They lack a certain something though. Need some polishing.

You are Canadian!

I have to agree with you here. What do you think I can do? Any ideas?

>>269548
nope. not canadian. Maple trees grow in other countries, too.

some of these could've used some fill flash on the subject
>> Anonymous
I agree with the fill flash. Also some more contrast will help a lot as well.

>>269540
The background is way too blown out. Fill flash will help that a lot.

Shes got a bad case of man-jaw but your photos are looking good. : 3 I especially love the green of the jacket against the red leaves. And yeah, ditto with the fill flash, but it would want to be fairly subtle.

The upper left corner kills it for me, ruins the illusion of a blanket of leaves. Crop it

>>269538
I don't like the angle, might have been better if you were lower.

>>269539
The tree frame is a nice idea, but the lack of detail ruins it, plus everything in the background is overexposed.

>>269541
Nice shot, way too much headroom, should've gotten closer, the way it is now there's too much empty room.

Also, set your aperture a little higher, there's a bit of blur around the edges in the first two.

Thanks, anon. appreciate the feedback.

>Nice shot, way too much headroom...too much empty room.
Think this shot would be better with a tighter crop? The building, unfortunately, would not let me get any closer.

>set your aperture a little higher, there's a bit of blur around the edges
Why does this occur? Is it my shitty kit lens? DX sensor? or something else entirely?

Just how a camera works. Longer exposer + Smaller Aperture = More detail. I don't think you needed to go up to 1/400 a sec for those shots considering there isn't any action so try a slower shutter speed next time.
