This is one of my favorites.....this is the city of Xining in Western China from the roof of the hostel I was staying in. I absolutely love the way this came out but, as always, am open to hearing others opinions...

The highlights are a little hot on the first image. I'm guessing you were going for light trails but just a little less open shutter time might have been better.

In the group of three the top one leans a little to the right and the thing in sharpest focus is the metal base in the bottom right of the photo.

The middle photo is a fine available light street portrait, but the right side is overexposed and the focus is again, not very sharp. In portraits the eyes must be in focus for the photo to work.

I love the last photo, but it also leans a little to the right; those round things above the dragon's head look all the world like Mickey Mouse ears.

I get the impression that most of these were just grab shots on the street, and if so they are good for that genre. You have a good start, but attention to detail will make good photos great photos.

So, is that enough feedback ;-)?

Keep 'em coming, I want to see where else you have been.

Eric
