    Meng, when you want some feedback on photos I'm told it's best to post in the Critiques page. If you have a photograph you like but just can't figure out what is needed to make it stand out there are many here who would be glad to offer their opinions. Keep in mind photography is personal endeavour and you may find you get varying and sometimes conflicting opinions. Even some you may not like. Evaluate their input and adjust your technical settings or creative leanings as you see fit but in the end, what you like is paramount.

    Welcome to the forum, Meng. Andrew gives some good advice here and please remember, everyone starts out at the beginning The more you put into it the more you get out.

    The composition on this one is very nice so I think you're working with a good photographic eye which is the hardest thing to accomplish. The technical stuff is "easy" by comparison.

    Thank you Andrew I do fully understand and accept the things involved when I open up to being critiqued. I'm not a young man so I've been critiqued many times in all aspects of my life, it's part of growing. As you said "Evaluate their input and adjust your technical settings or creative leanings as you see fit but in the end, what you like is paramount"

    Thank you Marko, I will post another in the critique section forthwith.

    Iguanasan, I understand exactly what you are saying about technical ability vs.photographic mind. I have a technically oriented mind, I understand the mechanics of photography, how to use the camera, how optics affect the image being recorded and I can read light, to a certain degree, I even get it right some times. Seeing the image in the first place is where I'm lacking the most at the moment.
    Feel free to critique any shots I post.
