Heroine, you should post more, honestly. Your work is so brilliant. I really love this photo -- the focus, clarity and exposure are all just wonderful. I think it might have been better if we could see the top of this so that it doesn't look cut off. Nevertheless, it's a really beautiful photo. Two thumbs up. I really, really like this.

Thanks

Absolutely gorgeous darling. I agree with Juniper, post more. And when you do let me know.
You have talent, anyone to say otherwise is partially blind.

All of them are beautifully done and the ones you had quotes for, added a little touch to it. (I must really try one day.)

The dog's wide, extremely parted made me double take, but that's the dog's genetic fault
Otherwise I love the sleepy look in his eyes. Very cute.

The baby looks mad D: Smile little darling. Oh well, the quote adds a great effect and the lighting is marvelous.

The only one I has one little comment is for the dead leaves. It's dull, beautifully taken and soft, but dull. I'd play with the exposure and saturation just a little bit.

I don't count this as much of a review.
Keep snapping.

I like these batch of photos a lot! This won't be much of a review, but more of me holding my mouth open at how much I like these photos.
1. I didn't like this one, it seemed pointless to me.
2. Good job here, the hands not being focused annoys me for some reason.
3. Nice, nice. Aww, be even cuter if he was smiling. Lighting is good, very.
4. This is okay. I don't like the nose here, how it is portrayed. It's just too blurry...
5. Love this. Honestly, love it.
6. This one--good job.
7. My absolute favorite, I just wish you hadn't cut off the edge of the flower. But so lovely, the portrayment of alone, desperation...etc.
8. Okay, okay. Nice job, not great.
8. Don't like this.

Nice work. Keep it up.
Tata!

Hello, Music!

I don't know much about photography -- but these photos were great and you seem like a talented photographer. I had some favourites and ones I didn't like so much.

1. This is a pretty photo, but I don't really get anything else out of it.
2. I also noticed the hands being a bit blurry, but I'm not sure whether to like it or not -- on the other hand, it makes the picture more interesting, and with the quote it's a powerful shot.
3. The kid is adorable. There could be more variety in the colouring.
4. To me, every photo of an animal looks the same. It's a good photo, but not very interesting.
5. This one is my favourite of the bunch.
6. Read the comment on photo number 1.
7. Read the comment on photo number 4 and replace the word "animal" with the word "flower".
8. There's something very intriguing about this one!
9. I like this. Focus could be better.

Nice job!

Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful comments and critiques!

1. Many of you mentioned that you didn't get much out of this particular piece, but truthfully it speaks millions to me. As a musician, I believe that music is everywhere and I think the beauty of the ornament gently displayed it.

2. Thanks for mentioning the blurry hands! I hadn't noticed and that is my mistake.

3. This one is a favorite of mine. I don't think he looks mad as much as deep in thought. Keep your eyes on the lookout though! I will probably upload more of little Jack

4. I was lucky to be able to get this shot of my dog! He is very stubborn!

5. Thanks! I believe that beauty exists in the simplest things. A picture doesn't need to have a waterfall or a sunset in it to speak to people.

6. Thank you all! I'm kind of obsessed with the plants-dying-into-spring theme!

7. This is probably one of the better one's I've been able to take of a flower!

8. Same as "6"

9. This is my least favorite. But I decided to post it anyways!

Thanks again for all your comments!

Some of these are really good, you have a very good eye for movement in pictures. The only one I didn't like was the dog one, simply because, it wasn't nearly as good as the others and looked a little 'holiday-pic' in comparison. I agree with Demeter and Mizzle about the hands being blurry. I personally quite liked the first one as sometimes you can make art out of other art and you achieved this.

My favourite by far had to be the one of the rope around the tree, simple yet symbolic. Very nice.

Keep up the good work!

Very, very nice! The picture quality is very clear on most of them and you obviously have an artistic eye for photography. I particularly enjoy still like pictures. The only picture that seemed off was the last one. It's a nice concept but the camera seemed out of focus. Also, try not to cut off parts of objects sometimes, like with the flower.
#8 was my favorite by the way :)
Keep it up!

I loved all of these, especially the one of Mother Mary! ^-^

Wow. These are amazing!

My favourite photo is number two, (Mary). I really like the way you have composed this photograph.

I think you have really captured innocence very well in all these photographs, although the first one, and the one with the ropes don't seem to have that much relevance with the rest.

Great job, these are awesome!
