Hey bito - glad you finally made it official!
A wonderful variety of images and looks like you have no problem with exposure and focus :)
#1 - super cool bird and pose, though a bit gruesome ("real" ) for me with that mouse close up - lol
#2 pigeon - very pleasing for the angle of view, the light, and the depth of field.
#3 - carriage. A lot going on in that shot. I see some lovely sky reflections in the glass, but I'm wondering if zooming in closer for a shot of carriage detail might have been the way to go. Or if you had the option to change where you were standing, to get a more neutral background so that it doesn't compete with the ornate details of the carriage.
#5 pretty lady - I know nothing about portraits :) but this image appeals to me for the interesting backlighting, again your angle of view, and her smile. Maybe just leave a bit more room above her head, is all.
#7 city at night - very pleasing, with the bright street leading you in and to the back. Image appears to be leaning slightly to the right, needs teensy straightening :)
Final image - lots of possibilities there with all those shapes and colors. As posted, is a very pretty snapshot of perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime trip with wonderful memories. For something more unique, maybe think about what interested you the most about the architecture of one building, or one against a second one, and then explore the angles, shapes, colors, textures, light.

The vast majority of UHH members are kind and nice and want to help!
And even a lot of the "coarse" ones want to help too :)
As for the remaining tiny percent, ignore them!

Glad to see you are posting bito, please keep doing so. Lovely shots, really liked them. The light on the pigeon picture is fantastic and really shows his iridescent colors on his breast feathers. Good job.
:-D :thumbup:
