Your choice of placing usual objects in unusual places is super interesting. Photo 3 is working especially well, with your use of light and reflection, texture, and shallow depth of field. I think this photo, along with others, could be stronger if you got even closer and lower when shooting these objects.
I appreciate the fact that you staged some of your images, it shows that you planned out your compositions. I would be careful when editing your image in photoshop. Your 8th image of the caution tape seems to be glowing a little bit probably because of the dodge tool? maybe scale down your brush and opacity on it.
The 1st picture is definitely the strongest and utilizes contrast really well. The editing is kind of detectable in the 4th and 7th picture because it creates a more unnatural glow.
The contrast and clarity of the third photo make it stand out to me. The sixth has a strong composition and a nice contrast. It looks like some of these were shot in low light and they're a little out of focus. I would definitely try using a tripod to help stabilize the camera.
Photo three has really nice repetition and contrast, throughout your images your contrast has improved and is well done, possibly because of your light? I like the personified aspect of the still life in photo 4, there is a playful mood in the way the cereal is leaning on a tree with its hat and boots like a cowboy.
I enjoy how you experimented with the string of lights, and most of your photos display the use of guiding lines for your compositions. You have a strong light source through most of your photos, but photo number 8 could use more contrast.
Image 8, the value range feels too gray and black. It needs some lighter tones. Image number 4 touches on a whole array of deeply disturbing social issues. Truly a haunting photograph.
Your play with the objects and settings in the process of creating new compositions seems very interesting. I think the last photo would have benefitted from more left centered perspective.
