Let me hear your thoughts... (photo critique)
« on: June 29, 2010, 10:15:09 PM »
let's start a discussion here by posting a photo and let others put their comments with regards to lighting, composition, exposure, depth of field, correct framing, settings, etc....

in this way, we can help each other improve... who wants to post first?

ok let me start...



this is the first photo i took (with my dslr, beginner pa).... here is what i think about it...

dull colors, poor lighting, framing is ok, depth of field is poor, looks like a photo taken by a camera phone....

not really a good photo... but it's ok, we learn from our mistakes...

share your photos and let's talk about them  :-D

not hdr. hdr has a broad dynamic range, if anything the dynamic range was decreased (see loss of detail and color in shadows)
this is simply a photo with increased contrast and saturation.
composition is ok but not great (the tree and its crushed shadow is distracting)
colors are great.
