So pretty! =D
What kind of flowers are those?

Wow. Your camera is better than mine...XD Those flowers are so pretty. Are they Iris's? I'm not positive. I've never reviewed a photograph so I'm not sure how. You camera has good quality and uh those flowers are really pretty. I like the water dropplets on the flowers, that always makes a good picture...I think. Well keep taking pictures, you've got skills!

Hey Amylith! Nice pics. I really do like them as a whole; the light in the background is very balanced and somber, which sets a mood for the entire subject. And I agree that you must have a nice camera, because you can see the little tiny hairs poking off of the leaves...So cool! :D

But, the flowers themselves, while awesome, look a little droopy. I don't know if that's the cause of the water droplets (dew, rain?) or maybe they're just dying, but either way it looks rather sad and withered. :(

EDIT: Wow, I can't believe I missed the title. So the water droplets are rain, not dew. ;)

Hello there
Wow, you have got some mad skills there. It's just so clear and beautiful. I happen to be fond of how the outside looks after the rainfall myself and you did a great job at capturing the image. And the purple flowers are just pretty. Maybe I should get a camera :D
The best is what you make it!

...eh, need a review? Click me!

Hey, Amylith, and a late welcome to YWS! =]

Wow, these are really nice pictures. I've always liked the rain and the look of rain/water drops. Out of curiosity, what kind of camera do you have? And what kind of flowers are those? Both pictures are very simple, but I like them. Often times, the most simple things are a lot nicer and cooler than the complex.

Keep up the great work.

Well, these are really pretty. I liked color and the drops. It looks like it's in hi def or something. It looked almost sad because of the lighting; I though it gave it more depth, maybe more subtlety.

It kind of reminded me of those really sad parts in books, at the end (the end of Half Blood Price especially), where you just know it's rainy or overcast.

Anyway, I thought these were nice. I'd put them as a wallpaper if I could.
hey, Jude, don't make it bad
take a sad song and make it better
remember to let it into your heart
then you can start
to make it better.

Hello there, Amy. I hope you're having a good day!
Ah, what a joy--getting a camera for Christmas! I myself recieved a Nikon D3000 this year for Christmas. I'm in love, as you must be with your new camera.
So, as far as getting a new camera goes, it's a joy. However, with a new camera you have to be prepared to fully explore all your camera can do for you. I assure you, it may be boring to sit down and read the manual, but if you haven't, please do; it'll be worth while. Trust me.
Okay, on to your actual pictures. They are nice, actually very nice. However, the angle you took the pictures at, quite frankly, makes them less amazing then they could be.
If I were you, I'd work on the angle I take my pictures. Expirement! It's not bad to take a few pictures of the same thing to find out the best angle! :D
Good luck and enjoy your new camera!
