NOT FAIR!!
Haha, okay, these are the type of shots I love, with low color and all the right touches. I love the one on the beach, it's so relaxing. The one of the car is perfect. The low color gives it an old feel. I love how there's not too many distracting things in the photos, that makes it better. I'm totally jealous of your ability to capture all of the little details on the flower. Keep it up and PM me if you have more... Please

Wow, I wish I was this great of a photographer. Those were some amazing photos. This is the kind of work I like.
Not only are they or things people usually don't pictures of, but they were full of meaning and I felt as if I was right there.
Awesome pictures, once again! |

WOW!
Just....wow.
These are absolutely amazing. The detail and colors and everything is absolutely perfect. My favorite is the park bench! The low colors just make the picture. Keep taking pictures and posting them please! |

I won't comment on the first set of pictures, but I shall tell you what I think of the ones just above!
P1- Wow. That's so gorgeous. So much that it almost looks unreal! Wonderful job, capturing the soft fog and the airiness of the clouds. Sometimes when people take pictures like that, they don't catch the beautiful place at just the right day. But yours isn't like that in anyway! The lighting is perfect, and the clouds and for really add to the whole pictures. I think if it weren't for them, the picture might look a little bland. Lovely job!
P2- Gorgeous! To me, I get this air of... wistfulness in that picture. Like, I get a fantastic old-timey country-side wood feel from this picture. The only thing that threw that off a bit was the speed bump. It didn't seem to fit with that mood. But otherwise, I love the whole look!
P3- I think this is actually my favorite. It's artsy (ironic, seeing how it's a paintbrush. Heh.) and very cool. That's the sort of thing I'd hang up in my room. Though I must say, I think that it would look better if the brushes's bristles were more pronounced and detailed; less blurry.
P4- Look at you! You're so cute! And excellent self portrait! |

These are absolutely amazing. You have incredible talent.
First set:
Picture One: I love the colors of this one (well, I love this colors of all of them, but this one especially). The angle and lighting are both perfect. The only thing that I could suggest is possibly getting the whole flower in focus, not just about a third of it.
Picture Two: This is my favorite out of this set. I really don't have anything to say about it other than it's beautiful.
Picture Three: It might just be me, but I'm not quite sure of the message you're trying to convey with this picture, if any. But again, I love the colors, angle and lighting.
Picture Four: Probably my least favorite out of the batch. The drop shadow/border seems too exaggerated and draws the eye away from the true beauty of the picture. If you had just a plain black border or no border at all, this picture would be lovely.
Picture Five: I love this one. Much better than your first with the focus. Colors are nice, angle and crop are as well.
Picture Six: This came in a close second for my favorite. The lighting is wonderful, colors are amazing. The only thing I have against it is the background just under the trees. But that's probably just me being picky.
Second set:
Picture One: This is stunning. Beautiful. Amazing. Words can't describe it.
Picture Two: Again with the drop shadow, though definitely not as bad as the one in the first set. I love the picture itself though. Very peaceful, with beautiful colors.
Picture Three: Would've liked to see the paintbrush in focus as well, but this is my second favorite photo out of all of them. Simple and yet beautiful and artistic.
Picture Four: Very pretty.
Might I ask what kind of camera you're using? I'm in the market for a new one myself and I've been searching around everywhere for a decent one.
Wonderful pictures. You're very talented. I can't wait to see more of your work.

Okay, I don't know much about photography, but they are really awesome pictures. I lived the one of the paintbrush and the old rusted out car. ^^
And, random comment: Woo! Go NZ :p |

AMAZING! Do you do this for a living? My favorites are the bench and the paintbrush.  |

What brilliant photography - all the pictures are so clear and have such a personality about them!
These are some of the best pieces I have seen. And trust me, I took photography as an A level, I have seen a LOT.
Your self portrait is also very good!
Do you use any photo manipulation programmes?
Keep taking pictures like this!
