#1 is nice, could maybe sharpen it up a little in PP.
#2 doesn't do much for me - the sky is quite nice by my eyes get stuck on the OOF railing.

x2 :cool:

I love the framing in 1 but 2 is not doing much for me.

Photo #2 would be great minus that railing. Really like #1 though.

I have to agree with everyone and I'm going on the limb and say that #2 does not work at all with railing or no railing the tilt along is to distracting

I will go with the crowd and agree I like 1 but 2 is not doing much for me... Though I have a different reason. I think it's oof. not just the rail but the tree and everything seems oof to me.

I like the bottom one better for some reason, They do need some post though,

I think composition is lacking in both pictures.

In #1, too much of the bike is cut off, and very important parts, leaving nothing of interest (pertaining to the bike.) The bike becomes in the way, instead of the subject. Behind the bike there is a nice ambiance, though, and I like the view behind. If you included the entire bike, or cropped it differently, it might have an old-school look, due to the background and styling of the bike. It also looks like you were happy with the view you had, instead of moving slightly to make the composition stronger.

In the 2nd pic, I don't know where the tilt or out-of-focus railing are beneficial. However, I really like the tree and sky in this.

Don't take my comments the wrong way, as they are just meant to point out areas that I think need to be stronger---mainly composition.

I agree with this, and is stated better than I think I could do. :p

#2 - More DOF could have helped, however, I think the tilt is the most distracting part. It feels like I'm about to fall over. A bit of a tilt in the frame can definitely help bring interest to a scene like this, there is just way too much here for me.

Try these???? i think they are beautiful but maybe not in the composition just in the sky the railing. was taken in france, but i wasnt really doing it for photography reasons :)

Your tilts are confusing. You need to have a reason to tilt. Diagonals are very dynamic things in a picture, but when the diagonals don't follow your subject, or out of focus diagonals take up half of your frame, you should really consider what you're looking at before you press the button. So far, you've posted 3 pictures of the same fence, all tilted a different way. Why would I want to see the fence when I can see that behind the fence is a much more majestic space?

I think the crop in #1 works well. There is enough interest there, methinks, but I also think it might have worked better in landscape ~ extending to the right, if that makes any sense.

I like #1 of the second set. The slight angle gives it something more. Maybe try some more PP on these to make them pop.

#2 seems like a accidental touch of the shutter button. :o
