Hello everyone!
I want to hear your feedback on my portfolio. Please be honest, I am hoping to improve my skills. It is easy to become blind to flaws as an artist because it is the work that I have created.
Thanks!

Hi Stephen, is it correct there are 9 picture in your portfolio at this moment? Where can I find more?
You have a good eye and your technical skills are ok.
Based on the few pictures, one thing you could work on: finding the main lines in your frame and putting them in the best angle (horizontal, vertical or the correct angle)
(pe: the image of the waterfall and the couple in front of it: The main line in the picture could be the water fall, I would put this more vertical. Saying this, I don't mean you can not do different, bit in this image, I would put the waterfall more vertical or even better, find the imaginary vertical between the couple and waterfall and put that vertical, maybe the tree is the better vertical)
I would also pay a lot of attention on the balance in the different plans of your scenes. (foreground, background, mid plan )
A tip I got, and helped me a lot: turn the image on his head and see if it stays in balance and keeps it's visual appeal.
I hope it is of any help.
Succes

Thanks so much Ivo!
