Did you mean to post this in photo critiques?

If so, you got 70 something pictures here. Typically photo critique posts have like 10 pictures tops and the goal is constructive feedback on what the community likes best and how you can improve and what not.

As is, this should probably be in your local forum. Cool location though, looks pretty huge. I'd be interested in hearing what it used to be before it became a concrete skeleton decked out in graffiti.

I did not. I had multiple browser windows open and I posted in the wrong one. Sorry about that.

Looks like a cool place to hang out and mess around. Seeing that gaping wooden hole with water beyond, I'd be wanting to bring a raft down and try to go inside. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, too many to critique here. Looks like a cool spot though.

One thing that jumps out is you have a number of focus issues in there.

Few tips (assuming at least a basic DSLR):

1) Keep your shutter speed up. Rule of thumb is to make sure that your shutter speed is faster than your lens focal length (ex. with a 35mm lens, try to keep it at 1/60 or above. If you're zoomed to 100mm, try to keep it above 1/125)

2) Look at using you focus lock button or "back button focus" so that you can choose what is in focus and then re-compose the scene. Sometimes the thing that needs to be in focus is not right in the middle of your shot!

3) Unless you are using blur intentionally beware the lower apertures. If you don't want to worry about it keep it around f8-f11 and things will more or less look like you would expect.

Keep it up and if you want to post a subset of your favorites for critique, that would be great!
