I've been wanting to get to this, and finally have some time this morning.
I think you've developed a nice collection of photos. You pick subjects and make your compositions well, sometimes using negative/empty space, but usually filling the frame and really isolating your images. You have a typical subject matter, tending to focus on animal portraits/close up/macro photography/lights at night. You have developed a certain style which I like, emphasizing blacks/clarity with your shots where you are approaching a "low key" feel.
You are a good examples of something I admire, which is making the most of your gear. There are a couple people that have been in and out of the forum that have a few pieces of equipment (sometimes high end, sometimes not), but really do good work with those pieces and illustrate how you do not need every piece of gear out there to take really good photos. Of course, while I admire that trait, I tend to be a bit of a gear nut myself. But it is a lesson I have learned, not trying to get every shot, just try to get the ones you want.
I would think that you could keep doing what you are doing especially if you want to develop a specific style and niche. If you are looking to grow, one thought in where to start would be trying a few images where your subject is less isolated. You can still have specific subjects, but maybe work with your fore/background and try to tie the subject into the scene around it.
But, overall, I have enjoyed your contributions to the forum. You see things differently that I do, and that is interesting.
