Hi Ryan....As Buzzbee said, but perhaps a little less brusque, it would really help us to offer advise if you resize your pics so that they are easier to view. Another tip would be not to group so many things together in one post as it helps us to focus on individual items if they are on separate posts - the occasional double-exhibit is ok, but a larger group like this makes things a little awkward, and when things are awkward, people tend not to bother.
On a brighter note, I can see lots of promise here. I'm not sure just how much turning you've done in the past, but you've clearly given a fair bit of attention to your finish. Yes, there's the occasional tool mark that could perhaps have been cleaned off or even sanded out, but I'd say you're moving in the right direction. With time, you'll pick up lots of tips about design and perhaps the simplest that I can give you now, is to try to form a single, sweeping curve around the inside of this sort of bowl, rather than a flat internal base.
One word of caution...the little candle stick does not have any sort of non-flammable liner, which is required by trading standards offices all over UK. This is quite important, and if an organisation such as the AWGB is going to have its members' work displayed on its forum, then it's quite important that safe practices are portrayed.
If you can get those pics resized, I'm sure you'll get loads more feedback.
