These photos constitute some what I consider to be the best of the best from all of my explorations. I use a point and shoot camera with no tripod, just in case that effects anything. I do plan to get a tripod in the future.
Anyway, I want to improve my photography skills, so critique away. How can I make these better?
1. No editing
2. No editing
3. Black and white, slight contrast boost.
4. Noise reduction, Sepia
5. Noise reduction, Cropped
6. Contrast boost, Cropped
7. No editing
As demonstrated by 2 and 7, I tend to favor up close shots of an object that is prominent in the foreground. Due to equipment limitations, panoramic shots in low light tend to not turn out well, so I avoid them (though shots such as 5 are an exception).

Thanks MulletCat, I've been working on squaring up my shots during my more recent explores. It makes a world of difference, just as your examples demonstrated.
Also, I'm actually thinking of getting a cheap tripod online sometime soon. I've found one that's around $10. It's flimsy, small, and can't be used as a blunt weapon, but it's cheap, easy to conceal and carry, and will easily support my small camera.

You can get some pretty decent photos with a point and shoot. Even cell phone cameras these days are pretty decent. Like was said, get yourself a tripod. a steady shot and being able to line it up will make the world of difference. Also work on subject matter. Theres nothing worse than a bunch of photos of an empty warehouse or rooms filled with construction equipment. Give something for the viewers eyes to focus on. Heres an example. _MG_7988 by yerocsnevets3 Stevens, on Flickr
