		I really like both of these.  The compositions are great.  The grain in the top photo is totally working for me.  I really like it.  Looks very antiquey.  
 
 In the bottom photo, my only suggestion would have been to frame it differently.  I would have personally liked it better if the handle was more in the left of the frame, and we could see a bit of the window.  I'm just being nitpicky when I say that.  I really do lke the photos.  Can't wait to see more of your work.

		| I love both photos - great job.  However, they both look like they have been seriously sharpened.  Is it me? |

		I like the Franklin Street Building a bit more and 
 I agree with Alienyst, it seems like the photos have
 been sharpened several times or you might have set the 
 ISO too high giving the photo a grainy look.  Regardless,
 they are both very nice photos ! |

 Thanks for the comments. 
 Not sure why they look so "Sharpened"
 I took a few more pics today of the Door handle with my 4.0 mega camera. 
 
 Hopefully they came out a little better and perhaps a little less "Grainy"    Thanks for the Comments Guys.
 And 
 NO I did not sharpen these at all. 
 All I did was Antique the Franklin street and Black and White the Door Handle. 
 Perhaps if I have time I can post the color Versions.

 I looked up the specs for your camera, what is your image setting at ?
 a. 2272 x 1702 SHQ / HQ 
 b. 1600 x 1200, SQ1 
 c. 640 x 480, SQ2 
 you may want to set it at 2272 x 1702.

 Hi Thanks for looking that up. 
 I take my pics on level c. 
 
 Should I shoot them at A. ? 
 And then re-size ? 
 Sorry I am fairly new at photography. 
 Thanks.

 Absolutely.  You may need a larger memory card but it's
 worth it.  You will see an immediate improvement in your
 photos.  Have fun and keep shooting !! |
