It's a boat... and a sunset. Not sure really what else to say! Perhaps you could have played with the baot's name in some way? Here it just looks like it's the name of the boat and the name of the photo. What are you trying to communicate with this photo? Not sure about the placement of the sun... any reason why you placed it where it is in the shot? The sky is a bit featureless for the amount of prominence it has here.

Fender, Dave & Jake

Nice mood, not sure about the composition though. What's with all the negative space on the left? Is Dave looking at Jake who's looking at the Tele? Perhaps you could have made a little more of that... Any reason for looking down on this scene? I may have prefered it with you on their level. I do like the negative space above them though, the texture of the wall is great. I like the feet, but maybe it could have been stronger if they both had bare feet?

The bottom of the shot and the bird is great! The white sky is awful. The composition feels bottom heavy to me. I wish the bird was bigger... perhaps a tighter crop? Not sure about the oof grain on the right.

Nice study of shapes and textures, but the composition isn't strong enough. What is the point of focus? The trick is to lead the viewer's eye and give it flow. Here, the eye is led out of the shot in several places... it's not clear what is really important and why we should spend a while looking at it. What does it communicate?

The wonky horizon really puts me off. Shot looks like it needs some colour balancing. Might work better if the background was more out of focus.

A Bird, A Boat, A Boy

Nice idea for the ooomposition... it doesn't quite work for me though, everything is too small. There's too much negative space that the bottom and right of the shot. The bird flying to the right on the right side of the photo means that the viewer's eye is led out of the photo... you should usually aim to put animals and animals facing INTO the rest of the photo. Same with the boat.

Shame the grass around the feet is sho sharply in focus... traditionally it's the face which is razor sharp, everything else should be blurry. What you're communicating here is that you found the grass more interesting than the boy.

The Photographer

What are you trying to communicate with this photo? Is there a special mood or feeling here? It looks like a snapshot... did you deliberatly place the horizon in your shot? There's a lot of featureless sky in the shot... was this deliberate? The photographer's head is hunched down so you don't really see it... was this deliberate? We get to see only one leg of the tripod... did you want that?

The Gambler

I would have prefered the focus on the gambler rather than the fruit machine. The background is definitely too cluttered which spoils the composition. The crop could be much tighter by removing the bottom of the shot. The face of the gambler is currently too high in the frame. The expression isn't amazing, this could be any fruit machine with any gambler at any point. The skill is to capture something a little unusual... a special moment.

Days End

The world has many many sunset photos already, always ask yourself if you need to add another one! What do you want the viewer to focus on? Have you used any imagination with your composition? Putting something bang in the middle of the shot (horizon) is really only something you should do if you feel absolutely compelled to. Try to avoid it on the whole. The main problem here is the lack of interest in the shot to stop the eye going out of the frame.
