Im a n00b! here and to photography i haven't been shooting that long.. I do mostly night club photography and this girl at a bikini contest asked me if i could snap some pics so sat late afternoon we went out and i took a couple of snap shots.. here is one and a link to the rest.. there is no nudity but it is bikini so im not sure if i can post them directly in here or a link to, but im trying to learn all i can so any feedback good or bad would be great thanks
Your photos are fine for this forum (no warning needed for bikini shots, except maybe
warning about "not work safe"). bocaj's image is very dramatic, better without the
railing, but for spontaneous works well.

UGH yes the railing is horrible... but the sun was going down fast and I had to get some sky shots, it was on top of a parking garage so I just snapped off a few.. if the background was nice I would have been ecstatic about this pic, do the spots on the ground take away should i photoshop those out and make them match the rest of the concrete or is that just unneeded photoshop time..
_mpi_ and Justin: why would you pick that for the winner? just curious on what your thoughts were on why? its funny that pic I kept passing over but i needed one of her in a different bikini so that was the last one i just kinda stuck in after passing it by like 20 times... but its growing on me rapidly..
5 is my favorite, and the railing doesn't even bother me. it just simply conveys a more "urban" mood, although, I have a feeling there's a better word out there than urban.
4 & 6 Are prime, but try not to show her scars from breast augmentation which are prevalent in the first two as well as the last photo somewhat giving away they're fake...Just my .02$
Damn! you're right! I never would have guessed those were fake until you pointed out the scars!
As for the snapshots...(that I would have happily taken myself just the same),
I like #3 - just because it provides a more natural, and therefore appealing, perspective - despite the lighting.
As for #6 - what are you people thinking? get your head out of the gutter - this is a photography forum and photographically, this shot fails every rule in the book - trees AND lamp posts out of head, railing piercing arms, wall/floor transitions - in a building-well, centered composition, flat lighting.
