Go easy on me, this is more of an experiment than anything. I am looking to sell these at a local coffee shop, and I am going for something fairly approachable across the spectrum.

CC always appreciated.

To me, numbers 1, 4, 5 and 7 are worthy of hanging on a wall.
For me this is art, good art is when it makes a person take a second look or think of what they are looking at, this can do both.
I especially like number 1 though.

To make these REALLY wall-worthy, I would attempt at making the black and whites more contrasted, as in the tree root shot, it's way too dark in the shadows.
(I would suggest that you make it the best b&w you can, then make the contrast move)
This is more about textures than what the shot is actually of, at least for me, that's why it constitutes artwork.

That's my thoughts on these, and I think that you did a very good job on this stuff, and I hope that you have good luck selling these, but if not, you still made art. :)

Thank's recrisp. I appreciate the input and will definitely make some edits before printing these.
