Well the wait is over, I have gotten the feed back on the pictures that I sent to the instructor at the class that I am taking on photography. It is not as bad as it could of been but not as good as I had hoped. To be quite honest I have taken better pictures but could not get them to up-load to the school site. Can't wait to put the in use some of the things that I have learned so far.
Just for a record, I am posting a copy of the feed back here. Don't want to loose.
Thank you Latina for your first set of photos!
They certainly show how passionate you are about photography. I hope you don't mind a couple of comments. This submission's purpose is certainly not to criticize your work before you get started on our course. Its goal is to assess individual student photography skills right from the start so that we can address the issues directly if needed. This will help both you and I get to know what areas we should concentrate on more.
Photo 1 - landscape
You were able to capture a shallow depth of field with this shot of the pink flower. By zooming in and being fairly close to your subject, you were able to isolate the flower in the foreground. You might try shooting this with a vertical frame and composing the flower near the top of that frame. This would allow the stem of the flower to move up through the bottom and offer a stronger balance.
You'll find an excellent landscape and travel photography section in our course that will show you how to take breathtaking landscapes, the specific settings to use, special filters to use, and what to look for in composing landscapes. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Photo2 - portrait
You have quite a bit of grain/noise in this portrait of your grandson. I recommend that you try to find more light which will allow your ISO to be lower. This will help create stronger sharpness in your frame.
Our portrait section has been designed to teach you what makes great portraits - candid and posed, why built-in flash is not recommended by pros as the main source of light, how to get rid of distracting backgrounds and much more.
Photo 3
Zooming in with this candid portrait worked well to isolate your subject from the waves in the background. This helped to create depth in your frame. Nice work composing this shot.
Latina, you're well on the way to becoming a better photographer. I look forward to assisting you in your further studies. If you need any help, just drop me a message. Good luck!

My understanding of the written text has been well. I am scoring 100% on the quizzes. Not bragging just want to keep a record. At present have completed the first two lessons.
