        <title>Please give me some feedback - Newbe experimenting</title>
        <description> I have been experimenting around town during the snow storms we've been getting in the North East.  Please give me any feedback positive or negative.  I am a grown up and can handle it.  Are they interesting or just plan snapshots? Thanks</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Thank you both for the feedback.  Some very accurate comments. <b>SillyHumanTricks</b> - funny you mention center focus.  Currently I have my composer &quot;locked&quot; at as close to center as possible.  Not sure if it is for simplicity of shooting/focusing or if I am too busy with lighting and composition.  Perhaps I can use off centered focusing to enhance both and the overall picture's interest.  I agree with you on #5.  It is shot out of my bedroom window overlooking our parking deck.  Not abstract enough and not clear enough.  I need to go one way or the other.  With #1 I like it a lot, but had a hard time with focusing as suggested by <b>bnzai9</b>  Thanks again folks.  Keep it coming.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ #3 is my favorite because I feel it is focused in the right places and that focus falls off in the right places.  I like the tone and colors in #5, but nothing in the image really speaks to me or makes a ton of sense (I'm not sure what I'm looking at, and I don't think the image stands alone as an abstract).  I have the same problems with #1.  <br />
I think you have a good sense of where to use the Lensbaby, but my suggestion would be to play around with moving the focus so it's not so centered in every photo.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Good eye. Definitely interesting and definitely not snapshots. Love the texture in #1 and I think it would benefit from more focus on that texture, the tone is right on the money though. #2 is probably my favorite, interesting lines and well placed focus. I'm from the NE as well and #3 brings me back home. Nice shot of a typical NE corner on a winter's day, great feel to it. #3 has nicely placed focus but the factory seems a bit distant. #4 is a nice experiment with the zone plate, interesting effects and color.]]></description>
