Alright, most would say that I'm better at art than photography, but these have been sitting on my computer for far too long. :D

Clock

Clock 2

A completely set up picture, I'm not sure if it was a good idea to take it as a sepia.

Imposter!

One of these last two is the original...guess which.

Hey,
Photography's not really my thing so this feedback may be pretty useless but I really liked the last 2 pictures, particularly the edited version. Reminds me the film noir aesthetic. The clocks I don't really get nor do I the sepia one. That 'Imposter!' is cool as well however may benefit from tweaking the levels? If that is the correct term. Maybe tone down the green as it draws my focus away from the statues.

Whoa, Jenthura, I absolutely adore that last picture. It's amazing and mysterious all at the same time. Where was this taken? Is the second one the original? The first one is a bit monotone, so it looks like it was edited into greys.

I'm not too fond of the others; try to keep even lighting to balance shadows and watch the angle at which you approach your subject. :)

Warning you in advance that I'm going to be a little rough on this first batch, only because your last shot is great =)

1) I like this one compared with the photo following it. It is a little dark, and while it isn't terribly creative, I think you've done the right thing by cropping it as you have. The only thing that bothers me a little bit is the logo in the center. I know you can't alter this of course, but it really takes away from the character of the image.

2) I don't like this one. The lighting is too mundane, and it doesn't stir any real emotion. It's very cluttered and extremely dark. The highlight on the middle left is distracting, and the only bright part of the photograph. Also, it seems to me that the obviously modern lettering mitigates the arcane feel that you have created with the hands.

3) This is really washed out. It almost looks like an old-style lithograph, which would be nice if this were the effect you were looking for. In any case, I think it would be much better if you had a stronger sense of contrast, because the composition--without it--just isn't terribly striking. It's not a bad photograph, but it's balanced rather simplistically and a little over-edited.

4) This is interesting, but it lacks a focal point. I love the perspective here, and if it weren't so busy we could easily identify the greenish statue as being more prominant. As-is, it gets a little lost in the blur of features and scatters of color. Perhaps better to focus more closely (in an interesting way) on a smaller component of a statue.

5) This one is very nice. Not great, but only because the one following it is much better. The only qualms I have about this photograph is the bluish tint you have created with the lighting, and I don't think it's cropped incredibly well.

6) This is a great shot and, assuming this is the edited version, you have very well identified the weaker points of the orignal photograph. The lighting here is spectacular, and the contrast is much better. It really is an exceptional shot. Well done!

Woah woah, guys! Sorry about any confusion I may have caused (to those who may have seen the last picture before) but I didn't take it...or, at east, not with a camera. In a sense, I did take it, and by that I mean actually taken. I was going through my computer again and realized that it wasn't my own picture, I just edited it and came up with the first of the two. So, just that to clear up anything.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback! I don't have Photoshop, but I'll definitely try editing them with the tools I do have.

I really didn't mean to plagiarize, but I have, much to my own mortification...

Also, I hereby renounce any of the compliments above pertaining to the last two pictures and bestow them upon the rightful owner of the picture.
