As a beginner to photography i would be extremely grateful for any constructive criticism/ tips etc.

The camera used for all early photos ( up to march 2013) is a Pentax K100D with either a Pentax 50 - 200 or 18 - 55 lens, since then i have been using a Nikon D3100.

All shots have minimal post-processing (cleaning and light/contrast), at most, with a large number being 'straight out of camera'
