- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
my questions are several. I feel like some of the pictures i post on here are pretty decent pictures yet in what i feel is a good photo i dont receive many if any comments. So this is where my queston comes in and i will use a recent photo that i think is cool.
What is it about this photo, composition, lighting, detail and exposure that does not make it good. is it too dark? too light? not enough building? too typical a building shot?
what could i do to a shot like this to make it stand out more then it aparently does?
I know these questions are rather vague and not quite on line with this part of the forum, but ive already posted this in the general gallery and id like some really harsh critique on it.
this was taken in Chicago at night hand held.
ISO 100, 1/60 f/3.2
post processing was just slight darken of the image and bump of contrast. Highlights were lowered and midtones raised.
i then layered the image and on the second layer i really darkened it up to bring out the detail in the building and give it softer colors.
