Looks Good.

Next time spend more time on composition and try to avoid busy background. Keep shooting and enjoy.

Yup. BG a little messy. #5 has got potential.

#2 and #3 are by itself very busy, they need a smoother background, try to open the aperture more or with a long tele, #4 needs to be cropped closer

sorry...but can anyone elaborate...wats bz....meaning too many unnecessories at the back? but all grass bo bian wat...is #1 oso considered bz? so meaning opening up the aperture 2.8 and below to make the bg blurr to create a sharper front?

Hi Bro,

Busy meaning messy background. A lot of leaves moving here and there kind.

#1 is busy front. =) Subject of interest is behind the messiness, so not so impactful although its a good shot.

Compare #2 and #3, which subject stands out. I feel its #2. This is what is meant.

Also, it doesnt mean opening aperture 2.8 and bg will be blur. You have to reposition yourself sometimes to get the background you desire.
