The Official Photography Thread - Vol. 3


This is genius.


Personally, I like the handicap sign and poles in the picture. I think they add some elements to the shot without detracting from the main subject. In fact, the other cars in the background bother me more than anything else in the background. That could just be me though.

Agreed on the weeds though.

the other cars are distracting me as well but I can't remove them since I don't have a background to go off of. I guess keeping the handicap sign wouldn't be so bad...less work lol
 
 
Anyone into vintage lenses?
my dad is, he copped some old aluminum kodak lenses from the 50's

Yeah, not being able to get rid of the cars in the background is understandable. Still a great shot nonetheless.

Here's a different one. I shot in maunal with this one. I didn't use a flash so I had to brighten it up....Please provide feedback :D
while this is better than the previous one, it really isnt much. My eyes are led to the lower right corner but why? 80% of the picture is just filler that doesnt help the composition. Cropping can be your friend. of course the best option would be composing it better from the beginning.

I see exactly what you mean. This is my first jump into any of those so I'm learning on the fly...There's literally no focus point of the picture.

My thing is stationary items (vehicles mainly...trains and buses for my job and hobby). I'll post one up unedited tomorrow.
 
Bought myself a d3100 to learn to take some nice manual photos and editing raw files. Starting to get a hang of adjusting the 3 settings either underexposing, balancing, or overexposure. This can be a fun hobby to acquire over the summer. Better than the first day when I boxed the camera, all I was getting was pitch black photos thinking my camera was broken.

I thought the same thing! :lol but once I picked up Lightroom, things become much, much easier. I took an overexposed picture with a heavy green object and was able to balance and smooth it out....I'm still learning and such but it's definitely fun and addicting :hat
 
Took awhile for the clouds to clear up and i didn't catch any meteors :{

First time shooting the night sky. I was fooled into thinking the shots i was taking had the proper exposure but the majority of the shots i took were underexposed because my LCD screen was super bright in the dark. I tried to cut out the noise as much as possible.
Any feedback is appreciated.
