Like the title says.... I seem to be learning things the hard way. the mom will be pleased, but all i can seem to focus on are the things I could have done better.
At least I'm starting to see these things, and can use this disappointment in the future to make me better.
Anyhoo, here are some of the pics from today, C&C would be appreciated, and dno't be afraid to be brutal. The worst that will happen is you making me cry like a 4 year old with a skinned knee. (I'm sure my wife will find it to be hilarious.)
Here is the first one.
I guess I don't find the lighting to be painfully difficult to look at on this one, but it does seem a bit flat. My main beef are the legs. I'm wondering if I couldn't have ad him put his weight on the other leg.... Hmm.......
Second one.....
Lighting still seems a little flat, I'm wondering if I could have bumped the shutter speed or aperture up a stop to help with that...... I guess I will ahve to take the kiddo out and practice this one, since I do like the location.
Number 3
I like the lighting in this one, but what do I know from lighting, right?
Here is the thing that pisses me off most on this one...... I cropped off his damn toes. How very rediculoulsy rookie of me.
Grrr.
4th one, and in my opinion probably the strongest one of the set.
Lighting still seems a bit flat. I really need to work on that, but am stuck a bit on it. I have received a whole lot of great tips but can't seem to get them through that mile thick skull of mine.
Last one here......
Yeah, I know you aren't supposed to pose people where you are shooting into the crotch, but it seemed OK here to get this shot. Again, a great location, and I was going for kind of a dark woods feel, which think comes through a bit.
Well, there they are, please dont hesitate to tear them apart. Like I said, my Wife loves to watch me cry.
She points and laughs. It's pretty embarassing.
EDIT looking at the post, the all seem a bit soft. The originals don't appear to be that soft, and Flickr usually doesn't soften them up that much. Not sure what gives.
