Here are a few of my galleries would love to hear some constructive criticism on what I am doing right and what I could work on. Please feel free to leave any comments you may have.

Cheers

Looks good to me. Composition looks fine and I particularly like the H2O shots.

What you're doing right: You're both gifted photographers and excellent photo-artists!
You both seek dramatic imagery with deep shadows & a great depth of field. At times your images seem to be losing too much detail in the shadows & are displaying a bit too much contrast. However that may be more of a stylistic preference rather than a technical issue.
Your galleries are absolutely wonderful. What an interesting place to photograph - Nova Scotia!

I think your galleries (you and Kim) do look great. The only comment I have is in regards to your landscape shots - they all look wonderful, as good a I have seen in magazines in books. To me there is a need to have a twist, or hook or drama to set your stuff apart. I am not so much advocating that a person has to pull out a personal style that is permeates of all his work, but I think for your work (which is good) to be set apart from A LOT of other good photographers shooting the same scenes - the same lighthouses - the same beaches - you may want to think of something that will stylistically set you apart and still be good art (and not merely a gimmick). To me, that is what makes landscape photography SO difficult, and probably explains why I don't do a lot of it.
