RE: Green, but orange

I think the first one is ok. The second one had a lot of things going on, and aren't arranged in any specific way. Going for symmetry or some sort of form would make it better. The third one could have been better with more arrangement, but it's not bad.

As for failure, I really hate it. I'm already hard on myself most of the time, but failing in some things makes it worse. There are a lot of things that I prevent myself from doing because of my fear of failure. I know that it's not healthy, and I should change that, but it is so difficult.

Yes, I did that on purpose to reflect a more abstract appearance to reflect what was happening in my life at the time, things I'll not say here. Sometimes life is messy and unstructured, and sometimes it's ordered and uniform...I'm not the sort of man to deny one over the other, and so my photography will sometimes reflect that. Of course, you are able to offer your opinion.

See above...

You sound somewhat disappointed overall. It's ok, brighten up, these are my images and not yours, so they don't reflect on you at all.

You should learn to love it. When I'm asked what element people can bring to their lives to carry them forward to greater success I say, fail more.

Self-limiting and not productive at all. You're going to die one day and nothing you did in life will matter anymore...but you're not dead yet which means you can make things matter enough to go and do them. (Thoughts, attitudes and actions.)

I'm not disappointed at all, are you projecting to me haha? I'm just reacting to your pics and how you described them as shite. The first one being ok is actually a compliment, and I didn't consider it as shite. I used 'ok' instead of wonderful or majestic or other bigger words because I've seen your other pictures and those were definitely better than this one.

My other comments were supposed to be constructive criticism and was my way of thinking how the pictures could not be shite. You now say you did it that way on purpose, and now I don't know why you consider them as shite.

These are some of the worst photos I've taken in a long time, I hate them, but they demonstrate perfectly that I don't have a fear of failure. I have, since, taken some great photos thanks to that fact, and yet know I will take more shit photos, I'm not a photographer after all, just a nutbag with a camera.
