Requesting critiques of your photos

[Overread14 2]

Well I managed to find a small bird that was willing to get that little bit closer - so for when this happens again I would be grateful for any advice that others can give me

Crit away - really pick anything (barring the blurry patch to the right of the fist two - I know and hate that already )

Thanks

Hey guys,

Please critique these photos on my thread: First shots with XT! C&C please. (Abstract/Macro)

I haven't got any feedback on these... I don't think they are horrible, but yet they're almost the only posts in the general gallery with no response at all, so here ya go... let me have it... at least tell me why they aren't comment worthy... I really didn't think these suck, I know they aren't art or anything, but no comments at all... harsh...

People actually want critiques?

If this has been mentioned, I apologize for missing it, but there should be a limit on the number of photos per link to ask for critique.

One is preferred and two as a maximum.

Trying to sort through 23 photos in a link will not get my attention....well, it does, but renders it useless to critique.

Just my 2¢ worth.

I just want to say that I realize people have issues with lots of photos in a post, but in my defense I'd like to say that in my first post there are 7 photos, but 4 of them are of the same thing just different perspectives, so to me that sort of groups them together. Same in the second post, 6 of the first 7 are of the same subject from different perspectives, so if u consider them a group... I wanted to share them all, but obviously don't expect critique on every individual photo since the critique for one would more than likely apply to several... you could always look through them and pick one that stood out as especially in need or something more than just ignoring them completely... I just don't get too many to critique any, but getting comments and critique has seemed a struggle since I started posting...

It's a struggle for nearly everyone when we begin posting.

Best strategy is to pick a shot and run with it. Bump it if you have to.

Once upon a time we had a critique forum. Well, it died and probably went to hell because it was too hard to figure out what was desired by the poster. Myself, I only have two eyes and have not figured out how to look at more than one photo at a time.

On a side note, I'm wondering what happened to the members that requested this forum in the first place?- Possibly you should request a mentor? Check the following for a list of eager members.

I just made a thread here:

for us to talk about this thread rather than have it fill up with talking

I realize this is the wrong place to post this, but it is as close as I could find. I would like to ask a few questions about the mentoring program, as I am very interested in this.
Thanks.

ask away

 

[rbraden]

Sorry it took so long to get back. I could not find a way to pm any of you, so I'll just ask here. I would like for either you or village idiot to be my mentor. Please tell me what I need to do to make that happen. Sorry I haven't been able to figure this out, but it is very important to me...

you are a new member so you need something like 15 posts and 7-10 days membership before your pm feature is activated - this was brought in to stop spambots pmming people with ads and nasty things!

probably best to wait for pms to be active so as you can speak to the mentor - since posting e-mail addresses can lead to spam problems. Don' worry those few most posts will come quick enough

As for your question Village Idiot is free to mentor - I just run the thing so I am not mentoring any students at all.

Just spam the forums until your PM's are activated. Those are my words of wisdom for the day.

So what's up? Experience, equipment, etc?
