Here's some of my favourite shots from my school trip to London on Tuesday. They're the first shots I've taken for my A Level coursework, themed 'The City'.

1 - Pretty standard "looking up the building shot". If you think about the best way to utilize those glass buildings you can come up with something great.
2 - Not doing it for me
3 - I don't like the crop, otherwise I love the detail.
4 & 5 - Not bad, but not great
6 - The best of these shots. The reflection on the lens is great.

Thanks for the comments! :) It's great that people's opinions differ so much, lol; your favourites are my least favourite, and your least favourites are my favourites! :p I created a few more last night, so it'd be good to get some C&C on these too!

I think some of the building shots could use a slight contrast boost (1, 4, 7 and maybe 10). You've done well to bring out a greater tonal range but that can sometimes leave them looking a little flat. A slight boost in contrast can make them pop a bit more.

Your people shots are great - lots of emotion, tight cropping, good use of black and white.

With a few of them, I don't think your subject matters are very gripping or interesting (2, 5 and 8).
