    I really do like the idea of the first picture. But the hand that comes in seems kind of disturbing and misplaced. Maybe its meant to have that effect? Im also a photoshop-person so i wouldve edited it to be little darker, maybe increase the contrast. Just a tip of how I wouldve done it. But overall i really like the idea.

    Connection road has a pretty cool light-effect. The black spaces around the sign makes it seem empty, and i assume thats the wanted effect?
    Nothing i wouldve done different, but it still didnt take me by storm.

    Third picture is my most favourite of these pictures. I like the way u captured the sunset, and made the tree's blurry. May have that effect that you're on your way to falling asleep. As said before im a photoshop-person so i wouldve removed that black dot on the sky, cuz it really irritated me x)

    Last one is a cute idea, but i wouldve tried it from a different angle. Maybe not so close to the models.

    Okie dokie dandy lets take a look, firstly welcome to the photography section <3

    1) I like the idea of it, but the hand on the side is very distracting, added to that I think it would have looked better if you had aimed higher? As it stands you have cut the head off of one of the shadows and the other is a little close to the top too, I think it would have looked better if the top of your shadows were further down the photo. That being said I do like their placement and I think the empty space works well.

    2) I really love this, I can't say anything negative about it from my perspective. I really love this one.

    3) Eurgh, I loooooove the colours, but the downside of photos taken at that time of day is that the lighting (or lack thereof) can make everything look so grainy and blurred. Colours are gorgeous and I adore photos like this, I wish I could say how to fix it but I'm still working on that xC the tree on the left bugs me though, I think it is too far into the photo, it takes it over and distracts from the sky.

    4) This one is pretty cute, but I personally would have preferred it if you had taken it from further back so you could see the feet of the models. Its a photo called Jump! The viewer would like to see that they are jumping and off the ground, other than that it would have been nicer if the lighting was better but that can't be helped since it doesn't look a very nice day there.

    Overall, you have the right idea and you're doing alright, just need to neaten up on a few things and think about how it will look in the end <3
