Ok, here goes...
#1 The picture never really had an intention. I thought it looked cool because just as i hit the shutter a truck drove by.
Images are most powerful when they have a purpose, or intention in mind. Something YOU want the viewer to see. The only thing i am drawn to, and find slightly interesting in this image, is entirely within the lower left corner. The rest is boring. remember to try other perpectives, like getting on the ground and shooting up.
#2 I liked the long white fence and how the light reflected off it. I wanted to try and portray the legnth.
This one has some interest in the lines, but it seems incomplete to me. The fence is cut off at the bottom. Perhaps shooting with the camera sideways, and really low to make the near fence larger than life, and show the length. Looks good with the sky, but most of the right side of the image is superfluous.
#3 The snow/ beach fence is more or less a classic "beach look". I like how the Moon, water, sand, and fence transitioned. I didnt intend on the chain link fence being in the shot and didnt realize.. Also I didnt realize I still had my UV filter on and the moon has a halo.. Part of the reason you have a halo/blurry moon, is because you are not focus on it, and it is too bright for your exposure of the rest of the scene. For a shot like this to work, take 2 shots, one exposed for the scene, and one exposed for the moon, and merge them.
#4 I like the wood and the reflections and shadows that were cast on it. I thought it would make for a intresting shot.. The shadows the structure the stars and sky..
I see what you were going for. The sad thing is, and nothing you could do about it, is the small wood fence needs to go.
#5 I thought it would be a cool shot but it didnt really come out as I would have thought..
Could be slightly interesting, but the blur kills it. Post your best for comments, and leave out failed shots like this, that you know didn't work, unless you need to know why it didn't work.
#6 Basically the same as #2 but with more of a urban rusted look. I liked the amber lights from the building and I liked the cool blue from the moon. I wish I would have taken my filter off..
Meh. The right fence line is too close to the horizon line. Could be more interesting to get lower and shoot a little up, and get the moon behind the fence.
#7 Same concept from #4 just a diffrent composition. I shot more of the sky and stars. The amber light was a little much but I wanted to get the stars..
I agree that the amber light is a bit bright, or slightly over exposed. I am drawn more toward the footprints along the small woode fence, oddly.
#8 I really liked this one. I like how the stairs lead you up to the sky and stars. The only thing I would change is there is too much amber light fromn the building. If the lights were off I think this shout would be awesome.
I see what you were going for, but I would include more of the steps, and maybe some foreground sand, to lead your eye up from the ground, up the steps, and to the sky. The stairs are cut off so much they don't seem like a key player in this image, and it falls a little flat in the story telling department.
Well I appreceiate the imput guys. Thanks
