      Maybe her pose is not ok. Her face is not ok too. Seems she is angry. I would try another pose and expression. You cut her left arm near the joint. If she was wearing white I think it was better to detach her from background.

        Maybe if the sky had some blue parts the picture would become more interesting. The fog disturbed the sharp.

          Nice B&W convertion. Nothing to improve. I liked the waves, the reflections, the people on the beach and the sky. Beautiful picture!

            I liked the idea. To improve I would crop the green wall on the left, move the woman a little left to change her head position to avoid the towel and use a light to illuminate more her face.

              I liked the background and composition. I did not like the shadow of the nose in her mouth. The glass is causing a strange effect in her left eye. The light in her hair is good. I did not understand her pose. Is she feeling cold or hidding her bag? What do you would like to show?

                For me it is ok, nothing to improve. Maybe show the entire car on left. I liked the lights, the cars, the HDR and composition. Good picture!

                  I liked the idea but I would include more part of the seat and show more background at top.

                    I liked the DOF, the foreground and the fog. To improve I would remove the shadow of the foreground and I would include the whole tree in the right top.

                      I liked! The b&w convertion worked, the background is good (I liked the river and buildings) and the photo texture is perfect! I would try a new face expression for the musician, more concentrated maybe. Excellent image!

                        I liked but I would add more space at the bottom to show the entire paddle. I also would like to see the sky. Maybe more space at top or shoot in portrait orientation.

                          There are some dark areas. Maybe if the clouds were more separate the picture would be more interesting. The blue sky would add more color and would contrast with the green.

                            I would walk back to shoot more wide. I would include the tree in a way that the branches would not stay in front of the cloud. Still a good photo.

                                I liked the light and composition. Nothing to add. Good job!

                                  It does not seem he is doing something with the sheeps. Maybe if he was more closer to the animals. I cannot see what he is bringing on his hand. The two people on the right are bit distracting. I would take the picture more closer with a wide angle. That is my two cents.

                                    I would add more space at the bottom to show the vegetation and I would crop a little on the left to decentralize the tree.

                                      I liked the frame of the build, the sky and especially the man in the end of street. Nothing to add.

                                        I liked the light, the pose of the model and composition but her clothes did not connect with the room. I do not know what you want to show. Still great photo!

                                          @nanyar Maybe is not the higher shutter speed but the lower aperture. If you use a low aperture in a sunny day the shutter speed will increase to compensate (if you use a lower aperture with a lower shutter speed the sensor will receive much light).

                                            I liked the action freeze and environment. I would use a lower F stop to unfocus the background (window) and would crop the bottom right (menu and napkin) that are distracting. I would also crop the reflex at the bottom.

                                            I am talking about the first image. I did not like the colors of second image.
