Whenever my family traveled, I always took pictures but I did that because I wanted an evidence of my trips but I only took it seriously a couple of months ago. Anyway, I was hoping you could review 3 photos that I've uploaded in woophy. Just search for my photos with keywords "evita tan". I don't know how to provide the link because the pictures are displayed in a pop-up window. 2 were taken in the Bohol island located in the Philippines & one was taken in Disneyland. Maybe you could give me some pointers. Also, I've inserted some photos for your reviews. Good, bad, or mediorcre reviews are all welcome. I want to grow as a photographer. Thanks! The photo below was taken while my sisters and I were sitting in the sidewalk in Main Street, Disneyland. We were waiting for the afternoon summer parade to start so I took some photos just to catch the moment. It was a busy summer afternoon with lots of tourists. The photo below was taken during our family trip to Bangkok. The tour guide dropped us off this big marble temple & I really liked the pagoda design.

(you can select the photo id in the pop up window and copy it with right mouse button clic, than you can paste it in the 'instert image' pop up) To give some critique: The two animal pictures are not sharp, they are both focussed on the background. Perhaps try manual focus if your camera doesn't want to focus on the subject. The Disney pic is cruel because you chop off two heads. General tip: Look carefully before shooting! Keep trying and look a lot at other photographers. Regards, Erik
