Could you please post your camera settings? It makes it easier for us to give you advice regarding settings. Also the barricade in front distracts me from your vision, and I think the left side could be cropped just slightly so that the dumpster isn’t in view.Check It Out

That is much better, in my opinionCheck It Out

Could you please share your camera settings?Check It Out

Nice shot, but the colors seem a little washed out. Maybe you could adjust the saturation in post-processing?Check It Out

I really like this image, but I feel if you would have waited until later when the sun was starting to set the building would really “pop” out from the background and it would be more vibrant. Other than that nice image!Check It Out

Could you please post your camera settings? And maybe in post you could adjust the green value, I am getting a green glow from the entire imageCheck It Out

Maybe if you repositioned yourself so that the walls led to that tree that is to the left of the walls I would find this more appealing. Currently, like Nikon-nut stated- it lacks a subjectCheck It Out

Seems a little “flat” to me. Maybe if you upped the shadow protection in post-processing?Check It Out

I could do that. Upon further investigation I realized there are multiple things wrong here with the picture. There is a splash from a fish, a bird, and some light beam things to the right and slightly down from the sun (do not know what that is called). I feel all of these detract from my picture, do you guys agree?Check It Out

Oh yes. Sorry about that!

I will try that! Thanks!

Because of the silhouette of the trees in the background, I find it very hard to see the main subject (the cross and it’s stand). Perhaps in photoshop you could lighten that a bit? Otherwise I think it is a very nice photo, I like the stars way up in the skyCheck It Out

The gray box is actually a planter, and I found where just one piece of grass was growing. It is nice to see other people’s opinions on this though. Check It Out

The water in the petals is indeed fake. Where I am from (central Wisconsin, USA) there is often dew on the flowers every morning. I took this picture and many others for some practice shooting macro flowers so I can learn from my mistakes before I spend a whole morning in the field. I sprayed it with a fine mist spray bottle.

I am not too great at photo-editing yet, currently just using GIMP, but I will try this weekend to see what I can do about masking the flower out.

As for Exif Data:

While it is a plane’s tail indeed, the building kind of takes away from the planes tail, essentially just blocking out some of the nice light and interesting textures you could have had if you just had the sky and the plane’s tail with no buildingCheck It Out
