I think you have some great ideas but your images are over done in post ( in my opinion )
pic 1 has very little definition,
pic 2 over worked with the blue water and blue eyes
pic 3 over exposed
pic 4 can't tell what the subject is or what is in focus
You have an eye for capturing a picture hope to see more..

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.

pic 1 needs a lighter tone of color, u losing the horse with all that loomish black color

pic 2 and 3 are greatly done , pic 2 outstanding as well..

pic 4 needs color in it first looks way too pale, show that pretty color of water , although the angle might be way out of line... this photo not appealing to me..

Pic.2 is overworked. Too much of blue.
Rest are fine, can be better.

OK

1. What's up with the weird area on the left next to the horses hear? Looks like you tried to use a brush in LR/PS and messed it up. Also the darks are too crushed (no details in the shadows). Nice shot spoiled by poor processing IMHO.

2. Too much contrast (again) and over saturated. Nice shot (spoiled by poor processing... again).


3. This one has the best processing overall. The blacks are a bit crushed and the whites are a bit blown, but it's the best overall.


4. Same problems as above. Crushed blacks mainly.


Do you shoot RAW or Jpeg? If you shoot RAW you should be able to pull back more details from the blacks and over exposed whites. If you shot jpeg you're stuck pretty much. I hope you shot RAW. There's some good shots here you could fix with better processing. If you have PS you can try dodging and burning areas a little, that might help. If you have LR or Capture One you can use brushes to increase/decrease exposure where needed.


People when you critique, don't just say stuff like: "This one is overexposed, I don't like this one. The rest are great" actually give some techniques or advice on how they can be improved. This is proper critiquing.
