 |  | Have a look?

Shooting with an Olympus E-410. I'm no whiz when it comes to processing my images and am just getting the hang of it all. I used to do HDR here and there but have came to the conclusion it's annoying and over rated, also tends to look like throw up. It can work for certain shots but if every photo you take is HDR, then you're doing it wrong. I've learned a good bit about my camera in the past several weeks but have yet to get back out exploring for some reason. These are some of my pasts. If you like anything specific, let me know, if you don't like something, point it out in an appropriate way please. Thanks. 
BTW, Sorry that the last three are larger then the others.

Number your photos and. Space them out.

What does spacing or numbering them have to do with anything?

Well, especially in the "UE Photo Critiques" section, you would want to number your photos so people can identify the photo in which they are critiquing. Instead of saying, "hey I really like the picture of the hallway", I can say I really like picture x.

I can see that, but is it that hard to just count..? If I had over 10 photos that would make complete sense.

It's just how it's done here. And spacing just for viewing ease. If you don't want to it's fine.
Your photos are nice though.

Yes. Counting is hard work. I dislike counting.

| | | | The hallway photo (number two) is very eerie and the third photo (dusty stairs) has an amazing level of visible detail. Good job!

| | | | the last one is by far my favorite.
i'd say you have to find your style of processing because these are kind of all over the place and people have different stances on how processing should be done.
I think the biggest thing you should be focusing on is composition. Are you using a tripod? Cause I can't recommend it enough. When you setup a shot you really should look through the view finder for a while and analyze what you're looking at. Are the lines straight? Do you have leading lines coming from corners? Does the composition pull the viewer into the picture? And is the photo even interesting?
You may want to do some homework on a few concepts:
-rule of thirds
-compositional balance
-leading lines
-golden triangle
Overall these are pretty cool, but if you tighten up the compositions and decide how you want to set the mood i think you'll be in awesome shape man.

Thanks for the nice response. I was using a tripod for a few of these but it was no good. I think I recently found my favorite style, these are all from at least a month ago. I got a new great tripod (manfrotto) and have recently gotten better with lightroom, etc. Starting to work a bit with RAW. I also finally discovered how to add the grid to my live view to check if things are straight, etc. Thanks for the comments guys, I appreciate the criticism! I just haven't been out enough to get any newer shots. I've been slacking.

Thanks! I wouldn't have been capable of achieving that effect if it was light in there. Sometimes a flash in the darkness seems to capture detail wonderfully.
