As for the diagonal shots with the 50mm f/2.8 macro, how else do you get an image caught? Use the whole frame and sod convention! but that's only my take on it.

Hmmm, it just seem to me that you are trying to stifle my artistic creativity.

It had better be worth waiting for. No goofy kids, please...

Funnily enough the HDR isn't so extreme that it bothers me particularly but the converging verticals do. I can see with some of them you have deliberately gone for extreme convergence, but some could have been shot straight? Couldn't they? Or am I just being an old fusspot...?
The CVs bug me too. I can get over the excessive HDR once I tune into the look, and the green (hey, I was a Konica film fan years ago!!)...
But I'm with Orinoco on the verticals.

I wonder how long it will be before a version of Windows is available for digital cameras, update any camera to microsofts own software which will include drivers for all the popular models
We could even end up playing games on the LCD screens

fisheye ... video
from a k10 to k-5 makes a lot of sense if you can justify the cost...

Chris, I appreciate any comments on my photos and you may well be right. I sometimes feel I have reached a bit of an impasse in my photography, and want to move in a new direction , but am not sure what that direction is!
These two were taken deliberately just before sunset, as I want to experiment more with taking photos using light at the margins of the day (something I did't really consider in the past).
I feel much the same as you, and I'm just being picky really. I have hundreds of shots that are sharp, well-exposed, but evoke a big "so what" in me.
I don't think I'm improving much these days. Technically a bit, maybe, but not compositionally. It's frustrating... and inspiration is lacking somewhat too. Maybe a K-5 would bring it back

And commend him for his taste in 1980s American television, but I must respectfully point out that his user name is spelt wrong. At the very least, it's missing an 'L'.
