On Golden Pond
Very beautiful. If you have more, I would like to see just a little more space above the bird's head. The colors and reflection are lovely.

water drop on feather
Welcome from the US, Jack.I love abstracts, and this is a good one. I don't find the diagonal not in the corner at all disturbing, in fact in this instance I rather like it. I'll be the drop falls pretty close to the golden spiral, which is a fine compositional position.
Looking forward to more.

Flowers of Darkness
I like this, although I think I would prefer it with just the single off-centered flower. The second one seems a distraction. The concept is quite beautifully handled.

Coat Of Arms
Excellent detail.This one would have benefited to have more on the top and less on the bottom, so the whole upper scroll would be visible.

Matching thread
To me, this is more of a craftsman's image rather than fashion, but that being said I like your composition. I do see a yellow discoloration of the skin tones. The 4th modification would be my pick....the mono actually makes it seem more of a fashion shot somehow.

Sepia Splendour
I very much like the effect on the flower. I would try to clone or dodge out the upper right dark spot. It takes away from the simple beauty of the composition. Otherwise it is well worked and quite lovely.

SURYAN ... MY LITTLE BABY
A very good portrait of a gorgeous dog. I might crop it in just to the left of the brick which is lying on the ground. It would bring more attention to the dog. My eye was drawn immediately to the brick and the pallet on the right. I also am not a fan of incorporating writing on the photo. If you want to title it, a moderate frame and smaller letters work better for me. Your colors, especially in the dog are very nice.

Sleepy Time
Fine image!If I were to change it at all, I might clone out the little round spots here and there amongst the down. Also, look at a crop which eliminates the white in the lower left. It would also put more emphasis on the duckling without having the eye drawn downward.
Good luck with this well composed photo.

Metal curving through to wood
The textures and contrasting forms make for a fine composition. I might suggest cropping a bit at the top and right side. Eliminating these lighter areas would make it a much crisper comp.Well seen.

Coffee Cups
I think the mono version does more justice to the repeating pattern. I like the color version, but the different colors break up the flow of the pattern. In the color version, I think I would prefer it with the last two row of cups cropped. Then the attention is more on the wonderful color of the cups. As it stands, I prefer v1.

Sunset over the bridge
The colors and silky water are well done. My only suggestion would have been to compose it so the upright of the bridge fell into a thirds position. The right side of the image doesn't have as much interest as the left side. By using the rule of thirds, it would have been better balanced.

The Lantern and the face
A perfect duet.As a critique...there is a halo effect around the portions of the lamp,usually caused by over sharpening. I know you are learning photoshop, so I thought I would mention it for your consideration.
I like the composition so very much.

Smelling for his duties
I really am more attracted to your composition than the mods. It gives the feeling of the place, and is true "street photography". The details are what makes the photo interesting. I understand the classic reasons for wanting to crop the sign, but in this case I think the rule is better broken. The tension that exists in the varying elements of the photo is also its strength.

Chapel door
Since you asked for critique, I would suggest this would have worked better had you taken it straight on rather than off to the side. That being said, I think it is beautiful architectural feature and I am enjoying seeing it.

Tha Lanterns
An attractive composition all around. I like the lights in the distance and that beautiful dawn sky. I don't know what aperture you used, but a slightly smaller aperture (larger number) might have brought the foreground light into better focus. I like it the way it is, so that is just a suggestion. It is a very appealing image.

The corner niche at Mdina
I like the way you have chosen where the light falls, it makes the statue appear as though it is floating in air. It also draws the eye to it, making it the main focus of your image. Your exposure is very good for the varying light conditions, too. You have detail in the shadowy area, and yet are not over-exposed in the lighter part. Well done!

Another part of Mdina
Personal preference is an interesting thing. I for one, just as soon have images like this without anyone in them, unless they are there naturally. I do like straight walls ordinarily, but in this case, I also like it as you took it. The walls seem to be enclosing the viewer. Nice shot!

To the old city
This is lovely, and I am impressed with the way you handled the exposure. As to the blue sign....I can see both sides of the argument. I rather like the spot of color in an otherwise brown composition, and because it is street photography, I think leaving it is appropriate. Artistically, perhaps it could be cloned out, but I don't think it would actually improve the aesthetics of the image.Nice work!

Another alley in Mdina No2
Skies are sometimes just like that....we have the same issue here in Maine...sometimes they are so light grey they are colorless. In this case, I really like how the steel grey sky echos the grey street. Nicely done! The bracketting suggestion is a good one, I often take one under exposed and one over exposed by just a stop to see which looks best. Replacing skies is never a good idea in my opinion, the light in the photograph will look unnatural when that is done, and it's almost always quite obvious. Nice shot, and much less noise in this one. 4 stars!

Another alley in Mdina
The composition and colors in this are beautiful. There is some noise showing up in the buildings. This can easily be remedied using a noise removal tool. It happens a lot in digital work, and is just one of those basic editing techniques which you will learn soon. Great job on the binging out the light in this.
