Hi Shema… I love the light in the first one. It's really the best picture of the bunch. I like all the birds on the docks and the repetition of the horizontal lines breaking up the reflection of the sun and the dark sky… This one is very well seen and photographed.
This next image shows you one of the main limitations of shooting with the phone… When you zoom in it's not a true zoom and so is just using a much smaller area of the already tiny image sensor. The result is a blotchy blurry image. I suppose one could make an argument that the impressionistic, painterly effect is desirable but that would be true for another kind of class.
The picture of the daffodil, number three, is perfect for an upcoming assignment on macro photography the weakest part of this is how the top left side is a little bit light relative to the focal point of the picture in some on the right side as well.
I would edit number four a bit differently… It's a bit light this way so I would take it down a bit darker in Photoshop and focus the light towards the center as I've shown in the video I did for Joe using an oval Marquee that's feathered and inverted…
I love the tangle of fine tree branches with the water in the next one. The weakest part of this picture is the foreground right side… Also the sky is very bright. My main recommendation is to eliminate the sky whenever possible unless the photograph is about the sky. So the center part of the picture is what's most interesting and the nicest part.
The simplicity of number six is very appealing. I like how you've pointed the camera down and how the light is reflecting this is an improvement over the last one because were not complicating the picture with an overexpose sky or the foreground edge of the bridge.
All in all a good series… I'm wondering if you are able to edit these in Photoshop? Keep shooting!
