I love the black and white photos. One thing I noticed is you are focusing on the whole picture. I mean with your landscapes. Try looking at it as form and flow. Focus on the part of it that gives a strong impression of form. Take the trees for example, try looking at individual branches and the contrast of light, shadow and form. I hope that helps.
My favorite photo was the children, you seem to capture people well.

I don't have much advice to give in the way of photography, but your pictures are great, I especially like the ones of the puddle and the coy pond.

I hope you won't mind a few pointers. I've dabbled in photography myself for the past five years and still have a lot to learn, but a few things stood out for me when looking at your photos.
First of all, I like the varied subject matter of your photos: it's very promising that you're taking pictures of everything. I know too many excellent photographers that only take pictures of flowers or bunnies or something, and while it's "cute" and "pretty", it gets really boring fast. So, I see you have animals, landscapes, architecture, portraits and maybe even a stab at something conceptual. Kudos and keep that variety going!
I'm not sure what kind of camera you use, and it's true that a good photographer makes good photographs, not the camera itself. BUT... I also know from experience that a camera with very limited functions will give you very limited photographs. If I were you, I would invest in a decent photo editing program, or download a free trial. Corel Paint Shop Pro offers free trials and it's a program that I highly recommend. You may be able to recreate those functions your camera lacks in post production.
Now on to the criqitue.... sweatdrop If your camera does have functions and features to mess around with, I would look up some manual or research what those functions do. Many of your photos lack focus and seem a little flat. Try experimenting with exposure and shutter speed, how much light is entering the camera, (or "Curves" in photo editing software). As for focus, figure out what your subject is in the frame. For example, the duck photo is really standing out at me. If the detail and sharpness was on the head of the duck, and the rest of the photo was less focused and blurry, I think it would make for a good photograph. Same with the Koi pond.... focus on the fish and let the rest blur out of focus so the viewer's eye is drawn to the subject. And last but not least, work on composition. That is, how a photo is cropped, where the subject lies in the frame, does the eye freely move about the frame, etc. All these things will become understandable with time and practice. Sorry for such a long explanation but I'm pretty passionate about art and photography. rolleyes
