Hi. I'd appreciate some feed back on these shots(snaps). Obviously I'm not aiming to be a professonal, I would simply like to take good pictures. Would like to know how I could improve these. Hits tips.....and C&C Thanks. lens 17-85mm f8 ISO 100 1/200 85mm Lighthouse 1. cropped Lighthouse 2. straight from camera Geese f5.6 1/30 ISO200 Photo was not good, but I quite like the head shot Quick draw on exiting the pub...it was them or me Nesting gullsTV ISO 200 f5.6 1/320 .....seem to have got stuck on ISO200 Baby Gull? ISO 100 f5.6 1/160 85mm like the shot...though struggled with the exposure.
Also this one .. Walk the walk!! f10 1/160 ISO100 Gull about to depart f13 1/160 ISO100 Shame I missed his foot. Was intent on framing his wings
Try not to post too many at once, drives people away sometimes. Some people prefer if you number the pics for reference. 1 - I'd trim it down a bit. The sky (it's not a very exciting sky) takes away from the nice lighthouse. I'd also crop the bottom up to where the concrete meets the dock on the right side. 2 - Meh, I much prefer the first one. The truck is just ugly and mucks up your pic. 3 - I think this is great. If anything I'd maybe trim the top down if you can get away with it (just above his head - the one on the left looking right) 4 - Very pretty :thumbup: 5 - The high exposure looked ok with #4... here it doesn't work so well. I think the bird's highlights are over-bright/blown. The last two in your second post are a bit less thought out I think and the people being present in the images hurt them as well. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks Reznap... Is this better.. 5 is my favourit. I took these as RAW +JPEG so hopefully I will be able to adjust the exposure etc., once new software arrives from Amazon
