Quite frankly they're all appaling as far as composition is concerned. There's a reason why people tend to use tripods and proper lighting.

The tripod and lighting aren't the real problem, the composition is, but that's bound to happen if you try to take photos of yourself when you can't see what you're aiming at.
Once you've got the composition sorted, then you can't start worrying about lighting.

well take a photo of urself against a backround and photoshop somthing in ^^

maybe deliberatly knock the focus off, i think it creates a really nice shot.

Well... I may not be a photo genius nor an experienced photographer but I find the composition to be pleasing to my eyes at the least. I don't have a studio to shoot myself infront of specific backgrounds so the background is really whatever happens to be there. As far as angles go I like them aswell :3 Eh, yeah. Thanks for the feedback though happy.gif" Rather that than none. I'll try to think of a way to do it better next time.

Thanks tongue.gif I was thinking about shooping it but I don't find them good enough to spend my time doing so :3

I'm assuming you uploaded these to MySpace directly after taking them?
