Hello, Miss Kitty! Did you use a digital camera here? =)

Okay, the main thing I've noticed here is that these pictures were not cropped well, or the framings were not good. We'll take a look back at the pictures where the framing or cropping were not done nicely: number one, too much sky; number four, the rocks were cut off (too early[?]) at the left part; number five, one would like to see more of the the upper left, not too much of the lower (the ground). Although picture number two looks quite nice, it could have been improved if the lower part weren't cut off.

Another thing about these pictures is that some were slanted in a not-so-nice way. For instance number three and number four. But number ten's slight slant is cool.

Now, let's talk about framing. In number nine, the frame should have been left off. The leaves are just an annoyance now. Same goes to number six's half frame. At least, if you're giving your shot a frame, leave out space between the main picture and the frame so the frame wouldn't look like a part of something accidentally shot in the picture.

Number eight looks faded. It would have been prettier if you have edited the colors a bit. It wouldn't hurt to edit a bit, right? Don't worry about it. All of the nitpicks I've mentioned above can be easily remedied in a friendly picture editing program such as Picasa, which is free by the way. And as I said, don't be shy to do some editing, even to the colors. It's ok, and understandable, since your camera seems not to be for professional usage, right?

My last nitpick would be for number ten, where there is an annoying line at the lower part of the picture. With just more practice, you can always end up in gorgeous pictures. And it would be worth it, especially when you're going in a trip to another country! =)) Keep shooting! I really hope that I've helped.

great job these are great shots but next time take off the date stamp all it does is distract the viewer.

Thank you, tydecker, that was very kind of you :) I should be getting to your review later today and I'm looking forward to checking out your work!

Jash: Thanks a lot for the advice, they are indeed from a digital camera, just a few holiday shots I took three years ago. I can't say that I've improved much, maybe a little aesthetically but not photographically as it isn't really a hobby of mine. I just like nice holiday snaps ^^ But thanks for the advice, I'll keep it in mind next time I go somewhere nice!

Will do, Annoymous! I've actually forgotten how to set it. It was something I did specifically for the holiday because I wanted to remember what nice things we did on each day :D
