Hi all, I'm new to this forum! I've been lurking for quite some time now and I thought I'd post some of my most recent pictures for critique. Let me know what you think! Thanks!:D

First one is a nice abstract but it's way overexposed. 2nd is kinda cool to show the venue but for cake shots I like to get closer.

As Tim said unfortunately the first is overexposed... with it being a shot concentrating on details.. the details cant be washed out. If the details were still there I would love it.

The second I really like. I am sure this is not the only cake shot you took.. you probably took some closer too? But I do like this shot, how you worked with the location. Well done

What they said about #1...

#2 is perfect, I wouldn't change a thing. Compositionally, you really brought in the strong diagonals and the repeating patterns of wrought iron. If I took that photo, it would be in my portfolio!

2 is great! It's funny how a small sun ray gives so much information on the time of day!
