Cool shots. I like the last goggle one the best I think. The first one is really good.

[highrevs]

I like the first one.

some quick thoughts.

1 - i like the juxtaposition of asthma inhaler (thoguh it took me a bit to figure out that's what it was) and burning cig. good composition too, and i like how you rolled the cig and the way the 'turkish royal' type read. nice photo.

2 - needs a tripod but good comp

3 - again a strong comp, i like the idea as well. good shot.

4 - too busy/confusing for me. not sure if there are multiple reflections going on.

5 - i quickly grew tired of selective color, but again i like the composition. you have a good eye, and that's so much more important than how good yr camera or lens is, really.

6 - horizon is not horizontal. image doesn't grab me.

7 - excellent.

8 - nice symmetry

9 - ok, not really my thing though

10 - very cool. excellent lens flare, however unintended

overall i think these are strong images. well done.

thanks alot. for the critique. i appreciate it. i will take any advice to make my photos better. thanks for the compliments as well. im still learning. im gonna buy a nicer camera here pretty soon. i was thinking a rebel xti. im using a canon powershot sd20 and a 1970s pentax mx slr right now

a couple of things...it's easy to get caught up into the equipment side of things, and go crazy spending $. of course a great body and pro lenses are capable of incredible image quality, but they also need to be in the right hands to make an interesting image, and/or to have full control of the shot. an XTi would make an excellent camera for starting out. if you don't have the $, consider a used XT and/or roll some of that $ into stuff you could need (lens, memory, external flash, tripod, etc).

there are a couple of books which helped me a lot, one of which is _Understanding Exposure_ by bryan peterson. very good read.

I completely agree with narlus on the pictures. I particularly like #1.

I've started reading the book "Understanding Exposure", and it's a good book, not only does it cover the basics of exposure, but has lots of examples to illustrate the author's points, which is very helpful.

[lovebunny]

awesome ill have to pick up that book

What the fvck is #7, In N Out?

[dezul43]

any berm shots from today?

[lovebunny]

What the fvck is #7, In N Out?

thats exactly what #7 is. a juicy double double. it was hard to hold myself back from eating it long enough to take the pic

1 & 10 are pinner nice. 1 has disgustingly awesome composition, 10 as well with the lens flare - I LIKE!

The other ones didn't do much for me. Composition on them didn't strike me as particularly strong, though 6 could be pretty good with a little post-op chopping. Lower third of the burger on 7 is slightly out of focus and the photo would be much stronger with it in. Lower fstop maybe? Not sure what you're shooting with here...

just a canon sd20 p&s

Those are some damn nice shots for a point and shoot camera! Seriously #1 would make a great "stop smoking" picture for an ad campaign.
