It may be awesome for some, but somehow I dont like it :P
5/10 (sorry if you feel this is way off your expectations :P )
It may have been better if you would have cropped off the oof in the front.

I want to know by somebody, would you have cropped this any different? How? Why?

I feel there is way too much empty space but I cant see how I can improve it without losing too much.


5/10

The shot is OOF. Is the lens having focusing issues? There are no focal points.

Also, if i wouldn't crop it anymore either. But i'll try to clone out the white pedal on the upper left.

I've got to agree here. Without a focal point that shot is pointless. Honestly, screw the cropping. Go back retake the shot, frame it better to where you don't have that white pedal on the upper left, and then make sure you are actually in focus.

Eek: 7/10 on your shot. Colors and focus are great! I'm impressed you are getting that so well while shooting through glass, I assume. However I don't know how I feel about the composition, or the subject. The subject is interesting, no doubt, but to me not visually appealing. What is it exactly? Lol...

Seriously, go post this shit in general chat. We don't fucking want it here.


And finally, this. Wasn't rated before, just was questioned about being my shot, so I am reposting.

I kinda like it, but im also bit bored on pics this type and i would like to see something really special from bokeh shots like this. Gonna rate it 6/10 since its quite neutral for me but those bokeh balls look little interesting. Would have rated it better if i wouldnt gotten bored of shots like this..

Shots like this are very common, took this one a year ago when I first started. And now, just like you, shots like this bore me.

Nice grain and contrast in that shot! Love it. I think I would have rather seen more of the lights above though. For that I'll give it a 7/10. Just curious, what did you shoot that with?


I don't have anything new to post here =/ I'll just post a few old ones until I get out and shooting more film. Won't be for a while because I have a pretty packed schedule =(

that´s a shot that I find super boring again. I guess its well executed, the expression is there. it´s just not really impressive tho. Ima give it a 5/10 to be really honest.

I honestly don't think it's that impressive either, haha. I just didn't know what to post. I love your b/w work. The editing in them is awesome.

I love the depth. although I wish I could see more of the subjects face (like if he was coming toward the camera), but that's just my opinion. 7.5/10
