Nothing really grabs me :confused: Keep shooting, find a subject and focus on that.;)

I wouldn't say anything was "bad" & there is definitely some interesting ideas but the images aren't showing your intent. What do you want to show, whats the story, whats the subject, is it art, is it an actual story, does it have any deeper purpose (place you grew up, first date, important landmark, etc). Who are the people, what are the places?
Try to just stick to one of these questions or have a theme in mind when you go out shooting. For example go out & shoot "red" or "double", I think that's the best way to start.
You do have an eye though, now you just need to refine it, thats all.

Great ideas. I hadn't thought to stick with a particular theme, but I like that. I was just doing more of a documentary type shoot of the downtown area. I appreciate the feedback!
