Some critiques please

Really nice shots!

First photo: It seems cropped, compositionally. Due to their patterns, there's not enough sky or the foreground tree. Perhaps you were constricted by elements we can't see!? Also, the bit of mountain on the left side of the frame, sloping up hints at another mountain that we don't get to see. It's very difficult to know what to do with this, not seeing what's beyond the frame.

Second photo: Very nice.

Third photo: I really like this one but you shouldn't crop subjects at their joints (knees, elbows, etc.). In this case, the ankles of the camels. Also, if you had some control of the rider and camels, it would have been nice if the rider-less camel had been a bit further back or shot with a larger aperture. As is, there's not enough depth in the scene.

Hi and good morning! I hope this finds you well. Aside, I would suggest a few things first, before a technical critique of your work:

1) Read your camera's user guide/ manual (become familiar with how it operates, hyperfocal-focusing range, it's various settings- manual, auto/aperture priority, etc.)

2) I'm a firm believer in utilizing the photographic, educational resources online. So, I would take a look at some "fundamental curriculum" to start. In my honest opinion, without critiquing each photograph here, look into basic compositions first, because you need a solid understanding of it all, before you'll get a genuine critique (i.e. leading lines, s-curves, diagonals, rule of 3rds, symmetrical balance, asymmetrical balance, and so on and so forth)

3) Once you've played around with these concepts, step outside and try to apply them, without focusing too much on your exposures, BUT that's the next thing I'd suggest you learn: Equivalent exposures and metering light. LIGHT, LIGHT, LIGHT. Look into understanding what a "histogram" is and why light is so important in photography. Understand the 6-stops of light, et cetera

4) SHOOT. SHOOT. SHOOT. Take A LOT of exposures. Continue to "Google," if you will, things you're not sure about. Again, there's some great resources online. I love Phlearn.com, Scott Kelby (Adobe), and many more, whom have made it part of their mission as pro's to educate the masses on proper techniques, post-production skills, and many other hot topics.

I digress. This list goes on and on, in all honesty. I think you have potential here, but keep shooting and gain a base knowledge about the 'physics' of your camera FIRST, THEN go shoot and apply the principles. Learn about "sunny 16" and practice getting a decent exposure first. Learn equivalencies, so that your adjustments will soon become "2nd nature." Get a damn good tripod (check out MeFoto). Invest in something other than your KIT lens. I personally liked my nifty 50 (50 mm prime lens), because it was all manual, so it forced me to learn the fundamentals quickly (but be careful, if you shoot with an APSC, then you'd benefit from the 35 mm, but again, this ties into your understanding of focal length and the varying ratios between sensor sizes and the effect this will have on cropping, ect.). Shoot manually, and often...unless your eyes are doing you a disservice, then it's OK to use some of your camera's auto-features. You'll find that some scenarios may require you to utilize the camera's auto functions anyway, such as a poor lighting situation, where you may have to set the camera on Aperture priority mode.

Anyway, lol, I can keep going, but I said I'd digress. Keep it up, shoot all the time, study, and keep in mind, no matter what your subjects are, KEEP IT SIMPLE. SIMPLE, NON-CLUTTERED AND NON-MOTTLED LIGHTING scenarios, especially as you begin your journey with photography. Cheers, and happy shooting!

Cordially,
Andrew F.

Outstanding! In fact, if you're 'traveling a lot,' as you say, often you'll see in professional photography, that the "ground we stand on" as photographers, often sets us apart. Cheers~
