The images are very interesting, and although you do state a little title for each, it would be nice for a little narrative as well to describe the picture more, or why you took the picture.

Despite that, it's uncanny that you do not have an avatar yet.

  great
  
  Also // just noticed
  
  You don't title any of your posts - meaning, you have no permalinks and no one can link to you. That's not good. I should be able to click on the title/permalink of any post and see an image/post stand alone

  Yes, I was thinking exactly the same, an eye for lines. That and an eye for colour and the wonders of nature around you.
  
  Amazing pictures!

Pretty cool photos, maybe find a niche in your photography skills. Shoot occasional different things but I'd choose something that I love to shoot. Also, I am by no means a photographer, but can you get the pictures any sharper?

You could also try making HDR photos. (Redynamix, Dynamic HDR, and photomatrix) are just a few programs that will help you create a really spectacular HDR image. Redynamix is a plugin for CS3 photoshop, cs4 plugin is not out yet.

With Photomatrix you will have to take three pictures at different exposures IE: -2, 0, +2 for example. Photomatrix is really great.

I run CS3 and CS4 so I can run Redynamix though.

Over pretty sweet... I would get my own domain as well. Host it yourself if you are serious about doing what you do.

Good job,

  hey thanks alot for your advice, ill check these programs out. i use picasa, but it is limited, and my laptop does come close to blowing up when i use it, so it would be a good idea to try one of these out.
  
  i am thnking about having my own website, but since am going back home in a week, am gonna wait to see how it goes over there, its not that safe to take pictures as it is where i am not, and soon will start working again as now i am student. ill see how things go, but i am seriously thinking about own site

I especially like your close-up, full frame shots of architecture. Very strong and good sense of design.

Disagree with you on those tiny figures in the Manchester Center photo. Adding life, contrast and scale, I think they make for a more powerful composition.

I enjoyed your site, however, I do think that the pictures are a little larger on most photo blogs I have seen. I am not a pro by any means, but I would appreciate any comments you may have on mine as well. www.timeoutdoors.blogspot.com

Hello, your images are good. But you might want to add some title or description to your images.

I have to admit you are quite amazing with your camera. I agree with Helsing - maybe a bit more descriptions on the photos - then it's perfect!

Love the photos! Are you sure you're an amateur? Could have fooled me. Stumbled.
