Beauty on the Side of the Road

Very restful, but somewhat out of focus. If you were in a car, I would have tried to stop, get out, and frame it as best as you could. I especially like the way the grasses in the lower right catch the light, and their graceful bend.

A Nice Place to Rest

Very strong composition. I love the ornage tones. Makes it look like a nice place to rest for sure. Just burn in a little more detail where the blown out highlights are (the bottom left and the center right side under the stairs) and I think the shot would have greater interest.

Needs a sharper focus.

Flower and Fruit on the Same Branch

Comment:
The glare on the right habanero is a little overblown. Colors seem a little flat in the leaves and focus needs to be just a little sharper. If you had taken it later in the day it might have added some needed highlights to the leaves.

There seems to be a lot wrong with the picture. It has a lot of glare behind the branch, and the focus is somewhat off, but I love the image so much, and the tonal treatment is so nice, that I have to give it a 9

You really need to treat that branch. Yikes, aphids. Good clear shot.

Lonely Branches

Nice historical looking shot. I especialy like the hay rounds in the field. Is it Pennsylvania? Anyway, I think a bit more contrast and a hair more brightness would have removed some of the flatness of the picture.

Of all the branches, I think one with better leaves would have been better. The leaves on this image are showing bad spots which I think makes for a less desirable image.

The light behind the flower seens very harsh. The flower is also somewhat out of focus and dark, probably because of the background. Difficult light when you have a really shadowy area and a really bright area. With a point and shoot, it is difficult to shoot such an image. Try many settings and subjects to learn which lighting your camera can depict well without blown out highlights or shadowy main subjects.
