Hi Brenda! Welcome to the BP family!! This is the best place to be for critique, as well as encouragement and exposure for your photography. To your photos. View of the Danube - I like this idea a lot... but the black thing on the right cuts off the second half of the farrie. I think without it, it would be a better photo. Saints of St. Stephans Dome - I really like this light on the subject, and the widows on either side, but the people are distracting - at least to me. I think a simple crop will fix this problem. Light my Fire - great subject, but the light is overpowering. Astrological Clock in Prague - the only thing I would change is to crop it on the right a little to cut out the other window. I love it otherwise! Other than those small and easy ti fix problems, your photos are great! Keep up the good work! By His Grace and For His Glory, Elizabeth C.

I concur with Elizabeth's critique but would like to add a couple of things. Light My Fire - Crop off the top part and get rid of the awning that is holding the peppers. It will help the composition of your image. Astrological Clock - Might want to crop part of the top. When shot from this angle (your only choice) perspective is skewed so just eliminate what you can. Saints - Were you prohibited from using flash inside this building? If so, they did you a favor. The play of the natural light and the dhadows has made this a dramatic image. Great shot. Lastly, don't ever, ever stop questioning your work. Questioning your own work and trying to improve it will only make you a better photographer.

Regarding my comment on Astrological Clock, ignore it. I went back and looked at it again (memory too shot, getting old) and see that that is not possible. However, I would crop out the head at the bottom.

Wow, thanks ya'll. I agree with the light on the peppers and the croping. On St Stephan's dome it's a challenge not to get people in it but I think I can crop more. Thank you.

I thought it was a typo but I'm not too sure. Could be either way.
