They are good pictures, but honestly, almost anyone can operate a camera just as well as anyone else. Only 5% of photography graduates actually get jobs in their trade. The other 95% end up doing something totally different, if they get any job at all.

If you were a great photographer you wouldn't need to go to college for it. I think you are on the road to being a good photographer. Your photos here look like you are more interested in post processing or you don't know how to make a correct exposure. Try making exposures that have maximum detail in highlights as well as shadows.

Umm, silly question, but why is every picture THE SAME?
Every pic I saw (and I went in first 4 pages) was you or some other girl doing the same exact thing -- just being IN the picture!

That's NOT composition!
You take pictures to tell a story -- not just of someone's face!

Here's a good site that gives composition tips.

Here's some examples of telling a story with 1 photo.

A lot of the pictures I have seen were too staged. They look too unnatural. I like the one of the boy with braces though, it is cute. The ones at the laundromat are too staged and don't look real. Who does that at a laundromat?
There aren't a lot of photos on there where the colour is natural either. There are a lot of black and whites that would be a lot more appealing if they had been in colour.

I like that necklace though… It's a moustache:{)
