C&C Please - 3 Pictures

[kgenny]

I was playing with the settings on my camera and then did some slight cropping/editing. Could use some feedback. I am new to photography and was using a Nikon Coolpix L110. Thank you in advance!

I like the second one, but I don't like the b&w treatment. To me it looks over exposed and needs more contrast.

The third one is nice too. Usually a centered subject doesn't work, but I think it does here.

How long have you had your camera?? I had that one until a week ago and I loved it. It's a great point & shoot. =)

No, I like it b&w, I think it just needs some more processing so that the fingers don't have that "washed out" look.

I have had it since christmas of last year (2010) and I have been using it but really just started messing with the ISO etc.

Is there a particular program you use?

I like the first picture. The contrast/brightness looks nice. It gives a smooth soft look to the hands. The second one, I agree looks overexposed and washed out.

I use Lightroom and also the software that came with my camera does some minor tweaking. You could also try Photoshop Elements, I know you can get a free trial of it through Adobe's website.

I like first picture. The second one has more contrast although some more editing on these photos will improve the quality of these pictures.
