well for one, you framed the subject in perfect right angles, which is a good start!.
but remember every picture does not have to be framed in proper 90 degree angles every time!. let your pics tell a story!. they don't have to be 'clean' (like tourist type pics) in order to look good!.
the clean look is nice for documenting or simply taking holiday pics, but a little artistic touch never hurt anyone, y'know what im saying!?
if you are looking for an artistic touch try to focus on one particular object in the landscape or thing or person you are photographing, it's all about catching the most unlikely details, for example, if you are capturing a sunset behind palm trees, zoom in on the leaves so that the sky and sun is behind the leaves and see if you can catch a stray cloud or bird or an aeroplane into that angle, the cloud, bird or air craft act as the unexpected detail!. try to capture photos which show people doing something, like say, children flying kites, you'll be able to tell a story by capturing the emotion and action through the pic!.

you have potential, as in, you have a good sense of capturing nice moments, now just try to work on your observation of small details if you want the pics to have an artistic touch!.

a short photography class or online tips would help you greatly!. knowledge can make alot of difference!.

and here's a little positive criticism, pics of slaughtered animals and birds are not the type of material you want to post to show off your photography skills :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

They just look like any normal tourist photos!. They would be good for as a photo for an article but nothing really hits me for a a "photographic" shot!. Don't worry about having a point and shoot camera as I had one for two years and it didn't stop me from taking good photos!. It is just a tool!. It is the thought process behind the camera that takes a good photo!. My photos looked like yours when I first started out!. It is only through trial and error and reading photography books and magazines and that I improved!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree with David, they do look a little ' touristy ' to me!. Most don't have an artistic side to them, or another theme!. They are just day to day normal images!. However, i did like a lot of them, with like the sunset, and on the beach of whatever!. However, just take photographs of more interesting things!. A lot of them were boring, like the one with the fish in the bucket, and i found this one to be a little disturbing:

You'll didn't have to be so mean to the chicken, Lol!. You can't buy it humanely killed at the super-market!? Ewwwwww!. Lol

I see potential though!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

try adjusting contrast
also, different angles can help!.
i'm not saying they are bad, but you need to put a bit more effect in there!. Make people want to look at them!. More colour defenition in some too would be good!.

This all can be done on computer except for the angles!. Try getting many many different angles and even black and white!. Just try ANYTHING! even if you think it will look bad, take a photo to see!

you might be suprised!
