Beginner's Critique - Pass it on

[NateS]

Since no picture was left after last critique I'll throw one up of mine.

I don't know of any way that you could make your photo better, it looks great to me. Perfect clarity on the main subject and the beautiful blue water in the background looks nice.
Here's mine it's just a shot of my husband riding last weekend.

Great Capture, I love the rooster tail filling the right side of the frame. The only thing I can think of to improve it would be to crop it a little tighter. Great shot though congrats. Heres mine. Let me know what you think.

Yes, I like that better.

@ icassell
I really like the angle and composition of the shot. The sky seems a bit noisy and blotchy, but that could be due to compression at photobucket.

Yes, I believe most of the blotchiness is a photobucket effect -- looks different here than the original.

That is a beautiful picture. Really like the angle and lighting. Only thing I can suggest would be to clone out the small visible section above the fret board. The bass strings really lead my eye through the photo, but I end up stopping right there for some reason. Other than that, bravo my friend. And you're a fellow North Carolinian! lol

OK. Here's another of mine. This one was shot with a 10 year old 3.2mp Olympus Camedia P&S.

Thanks for the input. That's something I would'nt have thought of. Oh love the car btw.

Host your image on Photobucket, flickr, or something like that. Then, place the direct URL to that image inbetween image (img) tags. Your finished result would look like this.

on edit:
better yet, read Corry's write up on how to post images.

Love the car pic, the colour's fantastic and in all honesty I wouldn't change much. If pushed I'd say crop it along the top of the tyres as that's kinda dead space and maybe clone out some of the staining on the pavement as it distracts the eye but these are only minor niggles. Good job.

Here's mine titled "Redemption Lies Beyond"

 

[joislpd264]

I think I figured this out....this is one of the first photos I've ever taken. Critique away because I want to learn as much as I can. Thanks in advance (I think

Redemption Lies Beyond is very beautiful. I am not sure what I am critiquing but I really like the photo....I like the way the clouds show depth....I hope that is right. I just like it alot.....can you tell I am really new?

I like this pic and I like birds and shoot them often.
Overall the shot is very nice. What bothers me is the lack of sharp detail. Either this is a rather severe crop with a so so lens, or a not so sharp lens or your settings are just off.

here's another duck shot, Let me know what you think

 

[zandman]

uplander, that's one photogenic duck you got there, lol
the water that detailed the duck is awesome.


did somebody said duck?

 

[TamiyaGuy]

Heheh, I really like that. At first I would've said to crop it a bit, but the background (boats?) just helps break up the lines a little, and the same with the chain. I also like the confused pose of the goose .

Well, seems we've got a theme. *crosses fingers for cute vote*. Ah, sorry about the watermark, it was from another thread of mine.

 

[zandman]

yea, boats are missing cuz that place is far from the yacht garage, it's like on the other side of the lake. and it's still cold that time.
