#7 is over-saturated with colours.

Overall Sharpness can be improved.

For architecture photos, the verticals of the building is quite important, unless you are trying to convey some messages with the slanted vertical.

Nice composition btw~ enjoy it.

I do agree on the Sharpness cause i took these shots handheld, will bring a tripod along with me the next time.

Thanks thanks, will take note of the verticals of the building next time.

if all shots are handheld, you must have quite steady hands yup do bring along a tripod especially for night shoot. keep shooting!

Haha, my hands aren't really quite steady. I had the shutter release on timer then just try to find some railing to rest my hand on.

Really regret not bringing a tripod along, cause i took lots of tries to get them look sharp.
Like the first few photos, try and try until the sky turn darker and darker. :bsmilie: :bsmilie:

I think this two shots very flat on the composition cause they are 'looking down on subject' shots. If due to terrain constraints you have to 'look down' on the subject maybe going wider and loosening your shots it will look more interesting?

But if you wanna go in so tight on the framing and terrain allows maybe put the camera lower so that the view of the taxi boats are of eye-level?

Hope I made sense...

hmm. guess i got what you mean.
I am indeed unable to get too close to these tokang, there got barriers around there.

Thanks for sharing some composition advices!
