From a group of many photos that you sent, we chose these photos and published them. It does not mean at all that they are good, but rather as a matter of giving feedback.
You have a good camera and lenses, you have to train your eyesight to choose the subject more accurately, and you have to go back to our previous preparations, where we went through important places about composing the scene and the angle of capture, and therefore you have to limit your thoughts to know what you want from these pictures, what they mean to you and what their aesthetic importance is, so do not take any picture what You were not satisfied with its results.
I am sorry, my friend, for these harsh remarks, but I want you not to waste money and time without a result. We also aspire for our fans to be at a reasonable technical and technical level.
And in the hope that we will receive new photos from you that highlight your talent more. We wish you success⏹

In terms of technology and the use of the camera, it is okay. As for the angle of capture and the artistic view, you should watch pictures with artistic content and study the formation of the aesthetic angle.
If these two scenes of the ruins of Jerash were within a complete framework, we would have a more accurate view of the scene.
So we have to advance so that these traces can be confined within the framework to obtain a strong stereoscopic, even at the expense of a little bit of the sky, or rotate to a different direction as well to obtain a stronger angle. The important thing is to study the scene and its strength before taking the picture ⏹

There is nothing wrong with what you have submitted, but this does not mean that you have reached a good result, as you are still in a preliminary stage before you can know what you want.
If the subject is to show an artistic aspect, then I congratulate you on the sea scene, as I took the picture in the afternoon to get reflection and a shadowy scene, but the frame is weak, as well as the rest of the pictures, especially in the picture of the waves.
The night photo is fine, but you need to provide a more coherent frame⏹

The colors in your photos are wonderful, and this reflects the technique of using the machine in terms of exposure and vision. The angle of capture still needs a study to limit the scene and highlight it in its strong form.
We advise you to pay attention to photographing antiquities, taking into account the importance of searching for the artistic and influential angle of the greatness of antiquities, and such a photo can be obtained with a wide-angle lens and a telephoto lens⏹

There is nothing wrong with the image of the clouds and their rays, but you have to include something in it in order for it to become complete, such as adding a tree, for example, or a car, or a person watching, in order to give a stamp of importance to these clouds.
The rest of the images may be technically normal, and here you have to look for an attractive vision, as not everything can be photographed. The important thing is your feeling and feeling about the scene you are dealing with ⏹
