The first picture is awesome but your second picture is not as good. I'll tell you why.
First of all, you captured your roof on the right side of the picture, very distracting. I see too much sky and not enough relection on the ocean. Keep up the good work.

I figured the 2nd one wouldn't come out as good but I liked that cloud formation so I figured I'd share it anyway.

Well, I didn't feel like going to class today so I took some pictures. The first one is a sunrise looking out my bedroom window. Nice view huh? The second one is looking down my street at the Writewood Mountains. The last one is after the sun came up a little bit more. I liked the clouds in that one.

I like the one on the far left. Sunrises have always been my favorites, the rising of the Sun signals a new day and a chance to change the world.

If the glass on the left hand side wasn't blurry and the red card in the middle of the pile wasn't blurry the picture might be okay. The purple glass in the background is very distracting. Interesting picture though. I think if the picture wasn't zoomed in so much then the picture would of turned out great.

Hey crazy, keep the drebel on Manual, mount it on a tripod and knock the shutter speed down to a couple seconds or maybe lower, get the lights in the pic to illuminate the house, i think that would be the best route

Haha thanks for showing that aweful night picture.. Don't worry, I learned how to take better night shots. I'll try tomorrow to retake the shot of the house.

Sorry if I sounded too critical of your latest picture, I just wanted to critique your picture as you requested. I really like the idea..but I think you should have zoomed out more. Did you crop that image at all?
