Number 4 is a great image!
The others lack a focal point for your eye to sit on, or be lead to.
1,3 and 4 are leaning to the right, 4 is very close but it was the first one I noticed due to the strong verticals and horizon.
Looking again, you are spot on right. When I am consciously looking at it, I find my eye wanders around.

Not so sure about one and three, but can't put my finger on why though.
Thanks Bob.

I'm not as sure about those two either, which is why I stuck them up for C&C. They are colourful, sharp, framed nicely ( IMO ), but missing something.

Well, I got out of bed this morning and went to Ellesmere Port. I was certain I could get some shots for Malo's theme....wrong. The place is full of oil refineries, but nothing which I could see to adequately illustrate the theme.

Still. It gave me a little time down by the canal, here are some of the shots I got.

C&C please

I would love to do photography for a living.

However, I need to pay the bills and eat.
I think I'd fall into this camp too

I made split screens for both my DS's. I find MF very accurate even when the light is low.
I know there are after market screens. But I'm a DIY type.
Go on..do tell. How did you make your own?

I prefer the split screen, but can't justify forking out for a Katzeye one and don't want to waste my money on a cheap ebay one.

I tend to agree with Bob.
I asked a while ago about shooting in low light. I made a comment about not wantign to use higher ISO and it was put to me that they are there to be used.
Better a slightly noisy shot, than none at all ( IMHO )

I'd stand a better chance of winning if I was blindfold, the way I'm shooting at the moment
