Hey the Rose! I'm not much of a photographer so I can't give you very helpful critique but I can tell you which of your photos I like most:
No.1: I liked this one especially the boats that you let stand out. I'll admit that I tried seeing how this would have looked in ALL black and white but I love like this.
No.2: This one is totally random but I love that. It's very... artistic.
No.5: Nature is probably the most over-done theme in photography but that doesn't stop if from being so beautiful. It's really inspiring which is probably why you took this picture. I love it.
No.7: Lovely island. Where was this? The landscape is beautiful.
The last one: Simple, black and white and eerie. This is my second favourite (after theforest one) because, evnethough this type of picture has been taken loads of times, there is still something unique in it.
Well done and I hope you'll post more of your photography!

Aw, Mikko thank you so much for your words:D As for the first one, my first thought was to make all black & white, but when I tried it, it came out very dull, and I wanted the boat to stand out as you said, and concerning the seventh photo I took it in Spetses. Such a great island!
there's a feeling I get when I look to the west, and my spirit is crying for leaving.
Picture 1: I love this picture specially the way you've cropped this. Its creating I-am-present-there effect.Bushes doesn't have details. Apart from that everything is great!
Picture 2: I'm not impressed with this picture since I can understand why you're trying to convey but unfortunately you were not successful. There is not much variation in colors, which I think is must for this kind of picture where lots of things are present in frame.
Picture 3: I love the angle which you selected for this photograph. It makes me feel I'm under the tree. Great click no comment!
Picture 4: I won't critique this picture rather I'll give you a tip which I received from my sir. When you take a picture with too many details then take three instant shots with different explore level- one under exposed, exposed and over exposed and merge and merge all of them as on photograph in Lightroom or Photoshop. You'll be amazed by the HDR result. Try once!
Picture 5: Angel is great, but I think it's bit titled towards right. You should have turned this by two degree or three rights anticlockwise. No sure! Personally, I didn't like the hue and saturation level in this picture. It would have been much better in natural colors.

Picture 6: Too much light in this photograph specially in the center of frame and subject(shoes). Its totally over exposed photograph. Shoes is totally white therefore no detail is available. Bad!
Tip: When you take this kind of picture then take care to raise camera/flash little bit towards sky. It would stop bouncing back of light and therefore giving better details in photograph.
Picture 7: There is too much light one the right upper corner of frame which in fact is giving please to my eyes. Feels like I'm in the sun and watching that scene. I need glares to see this picture. Great click!
Picture 8: This one is flawless! Love it! Only Ansell Adams can critique this photograph not me.
Remember: There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs. Keep clicking! Keep Submitting!

Hey Gawrav! Thank you so much for your tips, I appreciate them loads and I think I'll use them next time. Anyway, I believe that photography and well, art in general don't have rules, too.
Thanks again mate, glad you liked some of them!:D
