i dont like the macro for this shot
i cant figure it out, too close for me, really, its almost an abstract and the small dof doesnt help
5/10 coz i like colors ^^

I believe an HDR would be great in this situation, also I think it could be improved by getting a little lower to the ground.

any tips for capturing concert images? i was using a 55-300mm lens at max zoom (just a canon rebel xsi), because when i got any closer the crowd would bump into me too much. i was leaning up against a wall for this particular shot as well. i think my settings were something like 800 or 1600 iso with 1/125 shutter(anything faster was coming out too dark). would you adjust the WB on just the singer, because the guitarist's shirt is a decent shade of white i thought.. also how much would you adjust it, because there were red lights used..didn't know if it would take away from the concert lighting. thanks.

Don't be afraid of bumping up your iso on concerts. You need to be shooting at around 250 shutter speed to get the sharpness you require, since they're always moving. NR > motion blur. Yes, I'd adjust the WB mostly on the singer, although you may even pull it off with a change of hue. Just try to make the skin look less yellow. You're not a Nikon shooter, so skin tones should matter to you. Don't be afraid to crop this.

Titled: Decay

It's a nice shot but I don't think the title decay is very fitting. I mean that apple does look old but it doesn't look that old and far from rotten enough.
You should have waited at least another week and then put some maggots there too. :thumbsup:

Interesting idea, but I am not too fond of the overall outcome. I agree with kratos.

That's why using presets is bad, imo.

sorry but it lacks definition

well i wasnt posting a pic so i did not rate
i like the composition, interaction between photog and subject, DoF is good
in portraits lighting is key, and lighting here is not great, a light on the hair wouldve helped
as i said before there is no definition on her skin, seems to be due to post processing
due to 1/2good and 1/2 bad i rate it a 5/10
