Question: What do you think of these photos!? They just seem typical to me!.!.!.!?
(Sorry they're so tiny; I don't know how to watermark and I didn't want them to be stolen!.) It's somewhat difficult to judge the quality of them seeing that they're so small but please do the best you can!. =)

As honest as possible please! You don't have to comment on all, maybe just the ones you really liked or really disliked!. Critiques are welcomed! Even if you know nothing about photos feel free to comment! (I will pick a best answer) Personally I don't like the angle on seven and three!.

All right, I'm tired so I'm going to do this lazily, by number, but I'll be as accurate as I can muster!.

#1 It's a nice idea, but the background and angle could be more interesting!.

#2 Very nice!.!.!.No it doesn't need to be more lit!. The lighting is what gives it intrigue!.

#3 I appreciate what you were aiming for, but it doesn't come together!. It needs more dramatic lighting and a more dynamic perspective!.

#4 I really like this one!. High saturation and warped trees!. It's very surreal!. I would only want the effect to be more pronounced so it seems less 'fuzzy' and more of an actual blur!. It might benefit from a semi-fisheye as well!.

#5 I can sense the mood, which is good!. Though once again, the photo itself isn't that exciting!. It's sort of stuck midway between two points!. Id est focusing on what is stuck behind the window and focusing on what is beyond the window!. The screen's lines aren't bad, but it's a gross, brown colour, and it masques the trees!.

#6 This one is quite right!. It's got lighting, good DoF, dynamic perspective, and a nice splash of colour contrasting against the neutral grey/brown!.

#7 Upon first glance, this might be sort of boring, but I like it for a couple reasons!. The lines in the leaf are so interesting in shape and colour compared to the rest of the leaf!. I don't usually see such a pronounced purple against a brown leaf!. also, the shape of the leaf and the lines in it make it seem, to me, to be alive, and it's looking out longingly from its seat!. The personification makes me love this photo, and I accept not everyone will see that in it!.

#8 The lack of saturation and slight hint of gloom over-washing the field is quite prevalent, and thus lends the image a purpose!. It's not spectacular in regards to drama and composition, but not every photo needs to be!. I like it!. Not everyone will!.

That ended up being a lot more verbose than I expected!. I felt I needed to explain the why of things, though!. A post would have been futile in its meaning had it been any less in character!. Time for bed!. :-PWww@QuestionHome@Com

I really like pictures one and six!. But i also like number seven, the detail in the leaf that your camera captured is amazing!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i really like the idea of 4!. i like how its a little blury, kinda like driving in a car!.
i also like 6!. its very nice!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Overall, I think they're really nice photos!. I agree with you on photo 7, but photo 3 I like, and I especially think photo 5 has some artistic quality to it!. Good job!Www@QuestionHome@Com

There isnt enough life in these photographs

Of course, your picture doesnt have to have living things in it to contain life!.

More attitude, more lifeWww@QuestionHome@Com

's 2 & 6 are interesting!.!.!. don't worry, no-one's going to try to steal any of the others!.

I like #4 a lot

#8 would be better if that ugly dying plant wasn't in the way

The rest are kinda boringWww@QuestionHome@Com

I love the bottle and the yellow ladybug!. I think you have talent!. You need to mature itWww@QuestionHome@Com

1!. I am assuming the butterfly is the subject!. Try to keep the subject in focus!. Faster shutter speed!. If the butterfly was in focus nice photo!.
2!. I like the bottle photo!. Next time if you shoot the bottle, try to aim for the background to be all the way light!.
3!. Not too bad!. Maybe crop it a little more to just focus on the subject!.
4!. Looks like you were in a moving car!. Sky is a little over exposed!. Would be a nice photo, if it wasn't blurry!.
5!.Don't like this one!. I don't see the point in the photo!. What's the subject!?
6!. I like it, just try and get closer to the ladybug!.
7!. It's ok, but it gives a nice detail of the leave!.
8!.Nice composition!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
