bitter jeweler: The point of the "beginners forum" is for people to learn...so unless you're giving me some advice that I could use in the future, stay the hell off of my posts. OH and nice animation on the post asshole.

This was a complete misread, Sugarbug. Bitter Jeweler was commenting on the fact that someone made a harsh criticism as predicted. BJ doesn't deserve that slam but does deserve an apology.

All of us can be assholes at times, but this wasn't one of them.

This is gon' be fuuuuun!

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

EDIT: Type the Devil's name and the Devil appears. Hey, Bitter!

Evil is funny like that!

 

[Sugarbug2]

okay, okay guys...I overracted. I definately comprehended it the wrong way! I've just seen all of Bitter's comments on other people's posts, so I assumed he was being an ass to me too. hehe.

Bitter, I'm sorry!!! Please forgive me...you all can be confusing to a beginner on here! I really am sorry!

Who cares what any of these other 'self-proclaimed' professionals think. If you like the picture and the single color, the go wild! Photography, just like any art, holds if beauty in the eye of the beholder.

Awful

And for Gary, if you are just going to come on to be completely negative and offer no constructive criticism, stay out of the beginners section, you are being of no help.

I'm soooo misunderstood!

I was making fun of our friend gary.

Anyways, you'll either love me or hate me, like everyone else. Time will tell.

Bygones!


BTW, your screen name reminds me of Jolene from Mel's Dinner, after Flo left, when it jumped the shark. Wasn't she always saying sugarbug?

No problem. But you really need to read the whole book before you judge.

 

[Sugarbug2]

ahhhh finally some advice from you...nice.

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

Sugarbug, this is how it's done...

LIES!

There are many time tested, psychologically and scientifically proven elements of design and composition. I suggest you learn them jmash. While it's true, if the creator of the image likes it, that is indeed fine. However, if sugarbug came here to learn and get better at her craft, she will listen to people who know better than you. Selective color can work. But it's not something to be used willy nilly, just because you can. This applies to many techniques and treatments in photography. Sugarbugs post is an excellent time to learn about this. I knew she was just experimenting, and there was no need to judge her image, just the success of the technique. But now is the time to teach her WHEN to use the tool she just picked up. So, jmash, your post comes out of pure feel good ignorance, and is NOT helpful to the OP. If you came here to learn, I suggest you sit back and do a ton of reading. But please...DON'T be the teacher.

OP's first post:

What do you guys think?

...so she obviously cares what other people think.

If "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" then why would anyone clutter up the "Beginners section" with posts asking for C&C? Every C&C is going to be exactly the same.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

If you like it then it's good.

To each their own.

I'm glad you like it!

Hang it on your wall!

Same post, different words.

Shmne: Completely see everywhere you're coming from...good advice I can actually learn from. Thanks!

Geaux: Thank for the compliment

Subsuck: I didn't think you were bashing me. Thanks for the advice.

gsgary: Awful? That's all you can come up with? Most people that know what they're talking about usually have a proper explanation.

mrpink: yeah, I see where you're coming from...I'll probably just go with the subject next time!

You asked what we thought of it, you didn't ask for C+C, by the way it's also out of focus
