A couple of Photo's

Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Love 1# and 2# for the composition and colour. 3rd has the distracting bridge on the left (it may be my work monitor which is making things a bit dull)

I think the 1st shot is memorable, it is simple which makes it good.

I like number one but would like to see the focus more on Ryan.

The shot of the boy walking is great, but I think it would suit better with a slightly tighter crop.
The skyline/clouds shot is the best shot here in my opinion and would look great printed and framed!! (or even as a canvas)
The third shot, I like how u have an aspect (subtle-ish) of the HB too.

Well done!

All three are fantastic shots! I love the first and last ones. The lighting in no. 1 is superb.
