I know they're just snapshots, but that was kind of the point!. I wanted to portray every day life in Cleveland!. Everybody takes "pretty" pictures, I wanted to show the not so pretty stuff too!. What do you think!?Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I REALLY like the second black and white one, and the third black and white one!. Unfortunately, i found the others to be a little boring!. Like the first one, i saw your mirror, and it really wasn't an interesting shot!. also, the photograph with the jack-hammer was out of focus, which makes it ' bad ' photographically speaking!. I saw a lot of inspiration in your previous question, a lot of thought!. They weren't just like spur of the moment shots!. Sorry to say, i only like two of them!. However, as i said earlier, your work is really nice, just go out in the garden, and be creative with what you photograph!. But camera-out-of-window photo shoots might not be the best idea!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I think you have quite a few good shots in there!. I especially like the construction workers and the gentleman in front of the convenience store!. What I have learned is take the pictures that you enjoy taking!. We photographers are just trying to show the world through our eyes, but not everyone sees it the same!. I think that you have an eye for interesting pictures, not just flowers or the sky!. Keep at it!!Www@QuestionHome@Com Some of them are good, like the black and white one with the man on the bench, but some of them lose key elements, even in snapshots, like balance and composition, like the one of the view out the car window!. There is a fine line between artistically casual and touristy, and often times even the most experienced photographer will see the line blurry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Not bad!. The best one is of the gentleman seated in front of the convenience store!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Pretty good, try working on your composition a little more!.Try to off balance your subjects some too!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Mostly without any artistic merit!. I know you are capable of much betterWww@QuestionHome@Com I like the man in front of the store!. The others are so-so!.Www@QuestionHome@Com the only one i liked was the man on the bench!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
