Nicely composed image, but I wish the bird were larger in the frame.

This image would be much. much better if the seagul were in focus. Shallow focus would be even better.

This image could be improved considerably if the dog were placed in the sun and that if you took a closeup of the dog in sharp focus but with a shallow depth of field to achieve a nice soft focus on the background trees.

This image had great potential, but the overall poor quality of the image completely overwhelms the fact you framed your subject well and that you got a great pose. Technical image quality is the first step toward a great picture.

With the addition of a couple of lights this would have been much, much better.

Sepia is a good choice here, but the image correction resulting blotchy patches of focused and unfocused areas did not work for me. In my opinion it would have been better if that had not been done.

This image could be composed much better. It looks like the tall tree in the center of the frame is you main subject. Maybe you could have walked intio the field or zoomed in on that tree so that it and the fog were the only things in the frame and that the tree was placed according to the rule of thirds and and is nearly as tall a the frame. I think that would have worked well. Low contrast and soft focus like you have would work well then.

Unfortunately, this looks more like a poorly focused snapshot than anything. If you took an extreme closeup of your subject in sharp focus with a low f/number to decrease your depth of field you could turn this into a good image. Strong side lighting would help to.

This image uses the rule of thirds well, but bad focus really hurts it. Otherwise it would be an excellant image.

lonely rain drops

Comment:
The idea is good, but the image fails to measure up to it. You need to be closer to the raindrops and they should be absolutely clear. A softer focus on the background would make the water drops stand out even more and give a better sense of a rainy day.
