and this one

I'm a beginner and want advice - do you have any for my photography?

Toneka82 · Apr 19, 2007

what do you guys think?

Toneka82 · Apr 19, 2007

Everyone else, what do you think?

Nice but the black blob bothers me?! Too much vignette too

Weaving Wax · Apr 19, 2007

I agree with EOS. The black thing is distracting and looks almost photostopped in.

No offense.. The baby looks good.

Also, be patient. This is a message board and not everyone will respond to your post right away. I know you want advice, but if you repost the same thread and respond like you did, you're less likely to get any..or very few.

Just be patient and have fun posting!

It looks like a professional studio portrait, and one of the classiest shots on that particular page.

seems kinda fake to me... almost like this person is trying to advertise or something... posting the same thing on different threads and all...

What Tony said.

agreed. Notice that he buggered off after we responded? Time for a lock I fink!

BTW, can you go to www.iwantyourmoney.com and see my photos? Thanks!

Its a photo contest, he/she wants you to vote.

People her are so quick to want to close/lock threads because of the tiniest things. this has to be one of the worst forums as far as things like that are concerned. "AH, TINY ARGUMENT, LOCK THE THREAD!!!", "AH, I DON'T AGREE, LOCK THE THREAD!!!"

AJ Jewell · Apr 20, 2007

It may be a contest page, but it does sound a little contrived. He posted it in 3 different threads. Why not post the actual photo. Why do we need to go to his website with all those google ads to see it?

I see what your saying, but in this case, I dont think that he/she is being honest.

CFRacer22 · Apr 20, 2007

The page was posted instead of the picture because he/she wanted everybody to vote on the site, notice the "[Vote for this picture]" button directly under the pictures. If only the picture was posted, you could express you opinion on the forum, but not vote on that site.

All i'm sayin is don't be too quick to make an assumption. Some people might be new to forums and don't know how they work, don't know not to double post, and expect replies to be fast
