Question: Are these good pictures!?
I'm 16 and I just took a few pictures up north for fun with my Casio Exilim!.

1!. Sunset on Lake Michigan

2-3!. Mackinac Island-I was riding my bike down a steep hill and took some shots!. It was hard taking pics while riding a bike!.

I think all 3 are very good,I don't understand why some people think all pics should be Crystal clear,the third one would make a great back ground to superimpose something on !.Www@QuestionHome@Com

the third picture is blurry!.!.!.!.but it gives us the sense of being in motion!.
so though it's blurry, i find it visually appealing!.!.!.!.!.but then again, i'm no expert!. i take many photos that turn out blurry, but they actually look very cool!.

i liked the other 2 as well!.
the sunset was very beautiful!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Lets forget that they are blurry, obviously others have noticed that!.!.!.!. they all have nice composition!. For more about composition check out this link!.!.!. http://www!.colorpilot!.com/comp_rules!.htm!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The sunset on lake michigan is nice, but the other two you should have got of your bike and took some pictures, they would have came out a lot better!. Good Job!

i do like the sunset on lake michigan its really pretty!. beautiful sun!. the ones going down the hill you have a good idea but i think they are a little blury!. if they were still and clear they would look pretty!. =] good job tho!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Except for the blurry ones, these were actually pretty good!. The forest reminds me of the novel "Twilight" and sunsets are always beautiful :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

the third ones a bit blurry!.

they are ok pics, but its hard 2 screw up a landscape pic on an automatic compact digital!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

the sunset and the trees were beautiful!. i liked the "chihuahua" puppyWww@QuestionHome@Com

The sunset is lovely, but the tree shots are both pretty out of focus!Www@QuestionHome@Com

They are Amazing! I really like the first one!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

they are so good! but i think the last 2 are a little blurry

but great job!!:-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

to be honest, they are all slightly amateur, they seem really simple (don't get me wrong, that can be good!) and very by-the-book!. i mean, the composition is not very interesting and slightly cliche!. for example, the picture of the sunset, it would be really beautiful if you had zoomed out a little father to show more of the water and maybe part of the beach!. that would also show more of the reflection of the sun on the water!. also imagine if there were small silhouettes of a person or two off to the left side!. (i get that there aren't always the people around but just watch for things like that)
and with the tree pics they are blurry but they are pretty good for doing it while riding a bike! the composition tho should be different, (i know your on a bike but just some suggestions!) have the road off to one of the sides, partly cut off and at an angle!. or with only a few trees on the one side!.
try experimenting with interesting compositions and angles!

eek, sorry if this sounded really critical! i wasn't trying to, i was just trying to be honest and give suggestion! i mean, they are all good, just could be better!Www@QuestionHome@Com
