pixelated. Maybe you used a very high ISO for this? If so, try using a lower one + a longer shutter speed + a tripod. :)

Looks out of focus. The shadow on the right and the neon yellow is kind-a funky.

Nice... I would have maybe focused on the 4 flowers on the right more. They are powerfull. As it is, the photo is "lop sided" a little.

Terrible. You have a blurry thing on the left, and another blurry thing (ballon) on the right. Should have moved to a position where there's no obstructions. The lighting on the Chevelle is great however.

I like this one. It would be good for a "fish calendar" or something like that. Not being sarcastic. :)

Comment by esiegel:
There is something very timely about this shot. It obviously could have been taken years ago. The composition is very nice as well as the exposure and lighting. I would clone out that string or whatever it is that is hanging off the pier. Otherwise, I think I like this one the best.

This is certainly very nice. I like the way the sky and the sand sandwich the pier. However, I am trying to figure out what the subject is exactly. I think that maybe because the pier is exactly in the middle of the image. If it were the pier, I might have gotten in a bit closer and either lost some of the sky, or some of the sand and used the rules of thirds.

I like this one alot. I have a thing for piers. :-) I love the sunset, the colors are right on and pretty. The reflection you caught in the wet sand is very nice. Good silhouette of the pier. I like all of the lines and the little people on the top. This one does appear to be leaning a teeny bit to the right...by looks of the lamp posts. This and the wildflowers are my favorites. Good work.

I'm also not too crazy for this one for reasons already mentioned and because the sky seems a bit blown out. Also, just looking at your notes and I see you used f/2.8. This appears to be a bright day with harsh sun. Perhaps using a smaller aperture would have prevented some of the loss in colors. Also, a smaller aperture would have kept the entire image in focus. Now, as we go into the image, things get out of focus.

Nice backlighting and shapes. I think I would prefer all of the these to be in focus, though.
