What do you want people to comment on?

1. Berries... the composition is alright but the focus seems to be on the back left so everything in the foreground, which is where the action and eye is drawn (see Rule of Thirds) is out of focus lost in the depth of field. That being said, the images feel out of focus.

2. The cigarette butt... I mean you have a cigarette butt. I don't know if you are trying to say don't smoke or what, but the composition isn't the greatest (check out Rule of Thirds) and the use of DOF seems to not add anything to the image. In general the angle is OK and at least it doesn't look like a shoulder shot (standing there and telling people to say cheese as you snap a picture from a full upright position), but like I said...

3. Orange: The grass is sharp and the orange is out of focus, yet the bite out of the orange is your subject. The overall image is interesting but an image needs to be in focus.

Regarding your CC... That is something to be asked more specifically in the photoshop section. Personally I am becoming more of a fan of the natural aspects of photography so the less post processing the better (then again, I do a lot of event/wedding/studio work). Your colors are vibrant but it has that grungy element that just turns me off... some people are into that, but it just doesn't do it for me now.

In conclusion then: do some research on composition and lighting. Make sure that you have your subject in focus and then once you have a nicely composed image that is balanced and inviting grade it however you like. There is some potential but keep working. Rome wasn't built in a day.
 
i tried to keep the focus on the orenge as much as i could but it was hard when the sun ht the lcd.i didnt think it was a good idea to use rule of thirds but i should have.the meaning for the cig bud was dont smoke.thanks a lot.can you guys comment on the composition,cc.i would love to here any advice.thank you
