Critique of My Line Photos

My first line picture is of pearl necklaces of a mall.  I like that there are shapes repeating.  It could have had less distracting elements in the background, but othere than that I was happy overall with the picture.  My second picture was of the lake.  I was pleased with how the ripples in the water turned out.  I should have made the detail in the trees stand out more.

5 Line Pictures

I like this picture because railroad tracks generally attract my eye.
Also the lines lead my eyes to a spot in the picture.

I like the beach picture because the lines lead into the ocean which looks pretty cool.


I like this picture because it is in focus at first then goes out of focus.

I like this picture because the lines lead my eyes to a spot toward the back of the photo.

Critique of My motion images

My first motion image is my dog running for a ball.  I was really happy with the image because the timing was great, and it had a slightly blurred background.  I probably could have used a slower shutter speed to blur the background more though.  My second image was a friend jumping into a pool.  Again, my timing was great, but the image turned out darker than I wanted.  The action was frozen with no blur so I was happy with that.

Textbook Image

I like this image because of the motion and panning.  I can use this technique when shooting people playing in sports.  Since I play soccer, I can try and use the panning technique when the players are running.
