Hi, I'm a beginner photographer that just started 2 months, can I get any advice on how to improve these photos?

DSC_2163.jpg - shooting into the sun like this is rarely going to result in a useful image. The image is overexposed and hazy, and you have leaning verticals.

DSC_2553.jpg - the composition, with the large amount of unfocused foreground, isn't optimum. The shadows are underexposed.

What would improve the work of a photographer of 2 months? Study, experience, peer review. Probably, joining a photo club. In a few years, if you have an aptitude, you might be ready to tackle commercial photography.

There are many photography tutorials and videos to be found on the internet.

Apply the advice you find there to your photography.

Here is what I see looking at your photos:

Make sure the focus is crisp. The colors and contrast must be correct. Watch the exposre.

Do not shoot into the sun. Straighten lines.
