2nd image is really cool. like the way you framed the wires alot.

maybe thats what you could do with your lj after scream talking is done, use it to showcase your photography/camera photography stuff.

What kind of camera was it? These photos seem terribly un-crisp.

Maybe you have the shakey hands like I do? Maybe it's just the dpi.

There could be artifacting from imgage compression. Thing is, you don't need a great camera to still capture great images. This looks like a resolution problem, not a shaky hands problem.

Not everyone can afford to get skadillions of megapixels for resolution.

I've seen a lot of people take really great photos on a camera phone, no less. The toys that we have do not define how great a photographer we are.

I know someone that had the money to spend on professional toys, and he still sucks as a photographer.

I just hotlinked the images from my Flickr hosting -- very compressed, lots of artifacting. Plus, you know, it was a 3.1 megapixel camera, so the images only started out at 180 dpi in the first place...

Whoo! The Arcade Fire! Man after my own plague-infested heart :)

Your sense of composition is really good. I like photos that can really reduce an item down to its essential details. The forms, colour, and real focus on the subject show a lot of care when it comes to photography.

You are very good.

I really just kind of point and shoot. If any of them work, it's pure bloody luck...

You have a raw eye then. If you took a little bit more time just refining it, you would be wildly...wildly good.
