Greetings,
I am new to the forum and I would appreciate your criticism. First, some background
I received my 35 mm camera in 1986 (Sears branded Chinon DP-5 with a Sears 50mm prime) which I used until it broke. I then went to a Canon G3 which I used until it broke and then I replaced it with a Canon G11. I recently purchased a Panasonic GH4, 12-35 f/2.8 for video, and I've been having a lot of fun shooting photos with it in my spare time.
With all this experience, you would think that I'd be better than I am, but, alas, I'm not, and I could use some feedback.
These are some photos I took on a walk with my daughter. We hit upon a nice tunnel of trees and she was gracious enough to pose for me. I have only the on-camera pop up flash which I set to manual and I cranked the power waaay back so as not to overexpose her face. I wasn't entirely successful. The photos look a bit blown out to me.
These photos saw some light editing in Photos. I have Gimp, but I need to spend more time learning the interface before I can use it effectively.
Please let me know what I can do to improve.
Thanks.
