Hi All,
I have just recently started photography. I always wanted to take good pics, and about 2 months ago, I bought a Kodak Z650. I love it. So, I did an online digital photography course, and now I am ready to show the world!
Haha, well, maybe not... Ok, first picture. Go hard on me. I want to hear it as bad as it comes. I want to get better, to a point where I can make some money out of photography. And I am hoping that you can help me get there.
Settings:
Kodak Z650
f 3.7
1/320
f = 380mm (35mm)
ISO 160
Sepia
Thought behind it:
haha, not too much. I like the way the train curled round, and the fact that it was an older style train - Indian Pacific. The guy walking towards me was a bonus, and looking at the train as he was doing was even more of a bonus. I tried to get the guy on the 'thirds'. I like the way it has turned out. It has a 'dreamy' feel to it, like there is all sorts of things going on in the guy's head.
Personal Critique:
I should have used a tri-pod i had one with me, but it is still an after thought... need to get in the habbit of always using it where possible. Also, I think it is a bit too light. The fact that the guy is in the top corner, I feel gives a length to it, and as it is to do with travel, a distance to the pic as well, so i think that is good.
But thats about all i have to say about it! I would love to hear any comments, suggestions, questions, etc. I don't mind how hard you are, that is how I learn, so please do bring it on!
Thanks!
Patrick
