Yeah and I did experiment a little with photoshop. Hope you like them 
Wonderful creations indeed there. Please keep it up. I was musing that ‘technology lens’ can enhance a bit more of the beuty and presentation
of the ‘God - sent things’. Proof is this. Thanks for the presentation and dissemination.
Well done Yousef.. amazing shots! Keep it up
Next time you should show us some HDR experiment 
Keep it up, Bu ya3goub.
Great shots. Always wanted to take that step and get in to photography, but unfortunately i have no time. Rubeena tabeee imjabal ! 
Beautiful…. Though be careful at 1:30 pm!
Keep up the creativity.
Ok yousif am sorry! but here we go!…
The 1st: is shaky!
The 2nd: way lacks contrast!
The 3rd: its over exposed!
I’m sorry if i was harsh but compliments doesnt makes u a better photographer! critique does! ;>
My reccomendations for the:
1st: i have the same problem! try to hold ur breath while shooting! if it doesnt work stay away from shaded areas! ;p
2nd: am not a Canon girl am a Nikon, but i always give my contrast settings a notch up! (in my camera settings not PS)
3rd: read from ur center object! if u r shooting close ups or using a macro maybe u want to change ur light metering to spot or center.
oo bs! ;>

Mohammad Abdullah Thanks
EeLAaA Thanks for the great comment, I appreciate it. I agree with the shaky and overexposed. The first pic was in a shady area where I had to slow the shutter.. a slower shutter and the wind did not hel at all. and the last pic was in a very bright area… yeah.. beginner’s mistakes
But what about the 2nd one’s contrast? I don’t get it. I thought the picture looked perfect.. ?
loco Thanks
About the second one, hmmm we say its a bit washed away! or in B&W muddy! i.e lacks contrast.
what i am trying to say is that u try to bring out the brown in the trunk or the green in the leaves (if the palms green things r called leaves! ;p) ya3ni more live colors just to ad more life to the pic ;>
Wonderful!! Great shots keep them coming!
Maybe you could try using a tripod.. I know tripods are fidly, you need time to put it on, then up down, the height, I HATE that part lol but gives u a good shot.. never tried a macro lense, though i ordered one
