Default new guy needs guidance

Purchased a Samsung gx20 and have yet to take a shot with it as the sensor was damaged (being fixed as we speak), so all shots were on an old Casio. Basically looking to see if my composition is going in the right direction before I invest in more serious time and effort. All comments greatly received.

Nice shots.
The first the picture one doesnt follow the 'Rule of Thrids' composition and it doesnt 'HAVE TO'. But it is interesting to see that the perspective converges right in the center.

I'd say you're on the right track and that you have something to work with, most definitely.

I like the 1st and 3rd picture. The second picture is composed nicely but it doesnt really show what the subject of the photo really is.. the airplane or the man and his camel. Just keep working at it. You're doing great.
