I've seen this site a few times over the years but I've never paid enough attention to really sign up till now. Here's some of my work. Let me know what you guys think. Show me how things work around here.

I'm currently going to school for my BA in photography so im no noob but i still have lots to learn.:thumbup:

Ok i see, to be having a problem here. The photos im posting are showing up as i add them with the add image icon, but when i go to preview all i see are links to the photos. Someone let me know what I'm doing wrong here. thanks

Hiya C220, welcome to ThePhotoForum.
Good to see that you could finally make up your mind and join

.

As to why your photos didn't show up at first (I fixed it for you): it is that flickr adds a "?v=0" to the .jpg extension of the URL. Why that is done - no one knows. Well, I don't. Make sure you only copy the URL until right after the .jpg - don't also copy the rest. Then using the image icon here will bring your photos right into the thread. OK

?

Of all these, I best like the man in the chair.
It must be a lack of creativity on my part but I don't deal well with loads of empty spaces and only parts of faces in portrait photos. But I blame my not being a very artistic person for this.

Show us more, I am sure you have lots to show!

GREAT WORK!!!!!!!! :hail:

I particularly love the girl shot, that one takes the cake, hands down. Interesting work and brilliant use of light in these photos. Please, by all means, share some more of your work!

I don't care for the wide-angle distortion of her face, but I like everything else about #2.

Alex_B · Jan 13, 2007

welcome

the wide angle in nuber 2 certainly gives the image some distortion, but I could imagine this is even intentional and it dos work for this one i think.
it does not look silly at least

the only man in the chair is just brilliant in terms of colours and composition

I don't mind the distortion in #2 either.
My fav from the lot should be the third.

Welcome to TPF!

I really really like #2

on number 4 the picture up against the edge of the frame is a bit distracting for me. also the area in the carpet that is smashed down.

Over all though these are very nice photos.

I just love the old man in the chair. Makes me wonder who he is and what he was doing there!
