went to a festival. what do you think?

I think that the resolutions are much too small for critiquing, and that they look mostly like snaps. I sort of like the idea in that last, though!

\why are they too small? bigger does not mean better. im pulling from flickr. its about composition.

Looks like interesting subject matter.
Composition - nothing spectacular here. There is little creativity garnered from the various perspectives and choices of subject placement that you have chosen.
Apart from that there are obvious issues of light quality and background control.

I pretty much agree with Adam and Ash, they are not any "works of art", but they are nice snaps and as one that enjoys nice snaps, which is what most of us take, most of the time, I enjoyed them. Lighting was a little harsh in a couple and DOF might have been better controlled on a couple, but they are snaps.....not art, so I can easily overlook that.
In defense of snaps, I personally think they deserve critique too, we do a lot of snapping! LOL! .......and you got it here, so we should all be happy!
Best Regards!
