Berries

Is it a bad thing that my pictures all seem to have the same editing style? As with yesterday's photo, editing for this photo consisted of auto fix, black &white/selective color, orton-ish, and finally 1960's effect without the rounded edges. All of which was done on www.picnik.com
It is not bad to have a same editing style. If it fits the picture, why not use it.... This is an interesting picture, I find those lined up berries very intriguing. I like how the berries lead from dark upper corner to light lower corner. To emphasize this feel, you could crop a bit out of the bottom to get those exposed leaves right in the corner.

If I understand you correctly, that would be a weird 7 shape crop, how can that be done? I only know how to crop in square/rectangular shape.

Sorry for being confusing :-) I just meant a normal rectangular crop. In the cropped picture those lightest leaves on the right would be at the bottom right corner of the picture.

I think I understand now. You're not being confusing, I just don't really understand composition yet.

I like that you have a distinct style. I think if I were to have one, it's probably "oversaturation". I like the sc on the lil berries but I think I have to agree with @janmaki for the crop:)

@pwallis
oversaturation is where the colors are too blown out right? See, I still know nothing after all this time. lol. You guys are right about the crop, I suck at cropping. I've been thinking about adding @janmaki to my facebook so be can critique all my camp photos because I really want to take better ones next year, but I don't know how to achieve better. lol.
