Title: Chapter1 - Authentic Expression Post by: shamrock on January 21, 2012, 12:41:41 PM Hey guys,
Here goes nothing. My nerves are shot as I post this but this is how we get better right? I am new at this digital slr gig and appreciate any and all critiques and advice. Thanks in advance. Shaun Title: Re: Chapter1 - Authentic Expression Post by: goldcoastgolfer on January 22, 2012, 09:53:37 PM Looks great Shaun. Very natural, nice textures in the overall photo for the B&W - Perhaps a bit too much shadow or vignetting on the left but overall a great composition and photo.
Well done! Cheers, Malcolm Title: Re: Chapter1 - Authentic Expression Post by: shamrock on January 31, 2012, 11:22:56 AM thanks for the reply. I see where the left sided darkness takes away from the subject. Thanks again for your help.

Keep it up.I'm just learning too, but what fun. I will try to post a picture and will welcome feedback as well. If no one critiques our photos how do we learn?

Title: Re: Chapter1 - Authentic Expression Post by: goldcoastgolfer on February 21, 2012, 05:54:36 PM I have to say that with this shot I'm very impressed. Yes - an absolutely authentic expression but more impressive is that you've gotten the exposure right with the snow and your subject. It's also very nicely sharp. Well done!

It was a fun day. I was worried about the snow being white but it did seem to work out ok. Thanks again. You seem to know your stuff and I appreciate the advice. Valerie
