New here :)

Hi! I just got my first DSLR this week. I went out and took a few pics and wanted to get some feed back. Thanks!



The shore is on a diagonal and the whole picture looks lopsided now, can't decide if I like it or not.





I had alot of trouble getting this picture, I had it on shutter priority, trying to get the water to have that silky effect, but the sky is way overexposed. May have to try this one again...

Welcome to DPS. These are the guidelines for posting in the Critique section. You have a better chance of getting a response if you follow them...

We want everyone to have fun and learn here at DPS. In order to insure that, there are some rules you need to follow when posting in the Critique sections:

1. Only ONE new critique request per day(24 hour period) for ENTIRE critique section. Choose your image carefully.
2. Please post only ONE image in the thread. If you need to show more, link it to your set. If you post more than one, the other will be deleted at the moderators discretion.
3. Please keep images to 740px on the longest side. Mods reserve the right to resize oversize images or delete them until resized. This is easy to put up the proper size if you use flickr. If you feel it is necessary for us to see a larger size, link to it.
4. We strongly encourage the use of a photosharing site such as flickr, photobucket, zoomr, etc.
5. Please include the following information, if possible, with your image: EXIF info, type of camera, specific questions (What do you think? is not a specific question). A meaningful title, NOT "Critique Please", will also get your post noticed in a crowded section, as well as any additional information you can give about the conditions in which you shot.
6. Only post if you are willing to be critiqued - this isn't a place for showing off, but a place for people to suggest how you can improve. If you don't think you need to improve then this might not be the section of our forums for you.

The angled horizon almost works in the first shot. A little post-processing could add a lot. The motor home looks way out of place though.

Of the three, I like the second the best and would like to see it with a B&W treatment. Can almost hear that lonesome whistle blowin' ~~~ lol
