Some nice ideas.

I'd suggest a higher f-stop to get more detail in focus; particularly on the first one.

I might crop the first one also to put the ball right on the thirds power point (placing it at the lower right power point).

Maybe a bit higher on the exposure, too, if you can do so without blow outs. Snow is difficult because your camera's metering system wants to make it gray.

Thank you Mtn Man. Appreciate the suggestions. Will retry with your comments in mind!

Nice set tk. Perhaps consider cloning out the out of focus folage in the bottom left of No 1, No 2 is a lovely still life, and No 3 perhaps try and lift it a bit, perhaps a bit more brighter?

Have a great Christmas

Anyone who can make a good sewer drain shot is pretty talented. You and God did a great job.

I shook my head for a moment, then went back and realized that the sewer drain shot you commented about are my concrete steps from my house. But hey, I appreciate the comment, they are really ugly steps, if that helps. :wink:
Thank you for comments!
