#4, the color shot of the chair really catches my eye. I like it a lot, but I think it would be better if the angle was just slightly different, so that it was clear that there was a hole in the wall and not some wierd thing sticking out of the arm of the chair. Maybe I'm nitpicking, but I'm pretty sure that would make this picture really, really awesome.

I'm quite partial to abstract close-ups, so I think #7 is interesting too.

The colour of the chair in the fourth one is very eye-catching and all around makes for an enjoyable photograph. My favourite is the one before it, #3...I can't quite articulate my reasons behind it, but there you have it.

That is a pretty cool pic. I think the collapsing bricks and the triangle of snow underneath all draw my eyes to the hole and make me want to look inside. It may help also that it is slightly off center, but still fairly balanced.

Keeping with the 'golden rule,' I won't mention the ones that don't do anything for me. Okay, here goes:

#2 is a nice angle I haven't seen before from a place that's definitely been overshot. The only thing that drives me nuts (you can see this coming, can't you) is the blown-out top corner. Go back on an overcast day, rubber-stamp it in photoshop, just figure out how to get rid of it or reshoot it - it's totally obscuring the pipes overhead that are doubling the lines of the doors and killing a really nice pic.

#3 is really nice. Maybe a touch more contrast in the bricks while leaving the snow alone, but very nice regardless. That's a nice one to hang on the wall.

#4 has a really nice arrow of light pointing towards the chair, but it's lost with the vertical crop. Crop this one horizontal (and get rid of the previously-mentioned hole in the wall) and you've turned an otherwise boring scene into another great photo.

#6 is a nice find, but it needs either a more interesting sky (ie: not blown-out white) or a tighter crop around the 'stop.'

#7 and 8 are decent supporting pics from a series or group of photos, but #8 wouldn't necessarily stand on its own. #7 would though - nice printing/processing (I'll guess processing, judging from your screen name).

*note - all of the preceeding constitutes opinion based solely on my personal preference and experience. Take with grain of salt (not included).

yep.

6 and 7 are really interesting.

I like the texture in the stop sign, but I have to agree with mortimer, the sky is too empty, some clouds would have added. I like the bended grass, it adds motion to the picture as if constant wind was blowing in this desacrated wasteland.

The 7th is nice, it makes you wonder what's on the other side of the wall/door. I really like the contrast given by the white plate and the blood-like paint that stains it.

Good job!
