see I still have room for my truck

I get the habit (packrat) but this is a really visually cluttered photo. There is just too much jumble for the eye to have a chance to rest. The placement of the truck on top of the Shop-Vac in the middle of all the mess isn't really convincing me.

The Harmful Habit of Eating Too Much

I like aspects of this photo as a candid. I would suggest that in the future you move around a bit more to eliminate (or at least place in a less distracting point in the frame) clutter like the folded umbrella which is growing out of his head. It also would have been better to get a shot when there wasn't so much smoke obscuring his face. The smoke *is* good, don't get me wrong, but it's not (generally) a good idea to obscure the face of the main subject. I do like the station wagon in the background with its hatch open. It adds a timeless feel. I'm upping my original vote by one point after having another look.

Lady like??

Very out of focus otherwise it has some potential but I'm not convinced it is a natural scene and not a set-up. I'm a bit turned off by the fakey look of the girls' gestures, as if they have been posed an directed. They look overly conscious of what they are doing which kind of ruins the appeal. I think the problem is overkill. Only one of the girls really needed to be fidgeting (my money is on the nail biter---she looks more 'real').

Hobby to Habit

I like unusual perspectives but I don't think this one is working. I like the expression on her face and the simple background.

I play a few instruments, including guitar, and while I might call it a hobby, a passion, a neccessity....I wouldn't call it a habit. A habit implies an unconscious act or gesture.

Good or BAD ?

A habit of squeezing asses? Maybe...but it's stretching it. At any rate, this doesn't show that in anything but the most literal way. It's an obvious set-up which deadens the humorous factor.It's not funny in other words.

Territorial Pissings

Instinct not habit. Photographically yoru subject is out of focus and the scene is very contrasty. I like the point of view but I think it would work better in black and white because all the different squares of color add visual clutter.

Horizon is very tilted. It looks out of focus (note the blurriness of the label). There are a lot of hot spots from flash (in the glass, in the lower edge of the bottle and it's reflection,in the neck of the bottle, in the lower edge of the ashtray and inside the ashtray). I'm guessing this was taken using just a flash. This would account for the flat lighting and all the glare.

Out of focus. Not an interesting depiction of a toilet.

Habitually Sad

C'mon, this doesn't depict a habit. Sad is a state of being. Nice dog shot though.

Quite a bit tilted and it looks like there was a bit of camera shake. The hot spots at the lower edge and cutting across the middle are very distracting. Too orangey. I suggest paying attention to the white balance setting on your camera.
