Re: What do you think?

I don’t mean to be a burr in the bum, but these look like snapshots from a pocket camera.

Get your mojo working and get out there with an SLR (any will do) that makes a *K-chh* sound and a 50mm f/1.2/2.8 fixed focus lens and hone your skills.

Whatever you are using now, take it to the community center or junior college and sign up for some photo classes and you will find your composition and PoV will improve immensely in a matter of weeks.

I think you meant fixed focal length as opposed to zoom, instead of fixed focus. Some very inexpensive cameras such as the old box cameras do have a fixed focus but one would never use them on an SLR other than a couple of real odd balls.
