Congratulations on your advanced stage, especially in laboratory work, which you seem to be proficient in, to the extent of dealing like professionals.
The facial image of this woman, the prominent expressions she bears, and her harsh look. It is a very expressive shot within the style of portraiture⏹

You try to search and excavate, and this is an important issue, but you must refrain from capturing until you are convinced of the beauty of the scene.
Try to search for the appropriate framework and vision in order to reach a better result, knowing that some of your work is okay ⏹

The pictures of the flowers are good, and it is clear that they were taken in two ways: the first, which is the more correct method, and it is done by blurring the background through the wide aperture, so the shot came out prominent and its details are clear. The second method, in which the leaves and branches of the plant appear, which led to weakening the details of the flower.
Other pictures - as they came in their colors - are okay, although what is required is to study the frame and angle of capture of your scenes before taking them⏹

She has an artistic vision that is able to translate what she wants and what she symbolizes.
In order to develop this vision, you have to watch the photographs, so that your prior vision of any scene comes with a well-thought-out framework. We are confident in your ability and the extent of its development and forward ⏹

I understood your tendency to nature and what it means to you, as you acquired these trunks and gave them names expressive of their shape, and this is a purely personal issue.
1- In terms of the supposed shape, he took more than one angle for the scene by moving the trunk.
2 - The background and the background worked to distort and steal attention, which lost the prominence of the details. It would have been preferable to use a clear background and background.
3- The shadows surrounding the trunks distorted the shapes and dimensions. Here, you should not photograph it directly under the sun, or photograph it when it is obscured or in a shaded place.
Finally, to obtain accurate details and to obtain shapes with a stronger prominence, we advise you to use lighting that is placed behind the trunk for the second image, then it has a strong and prominent content ⏹

From now on, you have to choose your topics so that they express a vision or a state, and there is a lot that can be photographed, especially the picture that I called the reception, where it appears to us that a white house is suitable for it to be an independent subject on its own.. The white walls, iron windows, water, vegetables, etc.. are all worthy of attention. .
As for the picture of the palm, the obvious error is due to the background, so how is the subject and its background the same color? This matter lost the strength of the symbol and the details, and you had to put it on a dark cardboard or cloth background, preferably black, as it gives a great effect of presence and hides the prominent distortion behind the fingers through the use of flash - knowing that it is preferable to use the available lighting or artificial lighting «projector for such images⏹

Tangible progress and excellent results, especially with regard to the portrait image, and the double imaging technique, in addition to the sunset scene and its orange colors, which came as an expressive romantic shot. The image of the duck came at a good angle.
With our greetings and appreciation for the advanced level ⏹
