Hey again. Did you miss me? No? Okay... Anyway, here are some more pictures by your trully. These all were taken on Monument Road in good ol' Humboldt, California. A silhouette of my beautiful pooch and my friend being awesome. A gorgeous Monument shot (IMO). The Eel River and the city of Fortuna. The moon. Oh, and the Deathstar... Don't forget to comment!
Any chance you could get those bigger? Hard to see details.. 1. Really liek it, no problems here. Nice usage of silhouettes 2. Hrmm, my suggestion would be to zoom in more here. That and/or shoot when there's better lighting.. Light on open grass tends to look good at least imo 3. Way too much open sky for me.. could use clouds or something to break up the negative space. 4. Interesting, again, a lot of open space.. kind of boring tbh :l 5. Whoa. Post moar pics next time. Four isn't that much Edit: Overall suggestions: -Shooting during dawn/dusk/twilight means poor lighting and shouldn't be overdone. It's good for the occasional photo but not for every one as seen here -Better quality, at least from what I can tell with these small images -Try looking for creative/unique spots to shoot from, like in a tree, closer to the ground.. mere perspective can change a lot in a photo -Try different shooting techniques, take multiple photos of the same area with different aperture/shutter rates, etc.
Thanks for the comments So, here are MY thoughts after seeing yours: 1. P3RF3CT10N. 2. I actually had a second version that I took with the flash. It looked good, but trust me, this is better. I suppose I could have tried a few more with both flash and non-flash (wider appeture maybe?)... 3. Semi-rule of thirds dealio here, just with more sky than land. I did this because of the gradient in the sky; but I deffinately do feel the openness. 4. Honestly, to me, it's just the sky being boring... And for the deathstar? I wish I had saved the .psd... It's too centered. :/ Edit: For the size, I uploaded these to Flickr. Flickr hates sharing. I'll re-upload these to photobucket tonight so they're bigger. Thanks for the tips/suggestions!
My photo teacher said he almost never uses flash because it creates artificial lighting. Food for thought.. Ok, I'll take a look and repost if I see anything worth posting about in the larger photos
I think photobucket also resizes. I usually use Dropbox although imageshack is more common. In my completely unprofessional opinion (art isn't just for art pros) you've made completely bland insignificant average looking stuff look great. Finding better stuff to take pictures of even if it's just a different hill would make a big difference. The first one is my favorite.
