				I think people are trying to tread the fine between politeness and honesty.
 
 
In my opinion they are barely worthy of much critique. They are formulaic and filter-tastic. Looks like liquify filter and the second one pretty much the same with plastic wrap also applied. All in all they are uninspired.
 
 
Don't take my comments as a * off, rather a looking forward to some more constructive and considered work in the future. Starting off in a program or not, this is pretty tame stuff.

Here's an example of one of my earliest photoshop 'experiments.'  I present them here in three stages:
