This one is fantastic. It stands out like crazy. Shoot people more, although your landscapes are alright too, but sort of boring (I think it's just my personal taste for photos). Also really like the one in the OP. These two sort of tell a really vague story for themselves. It's not that easy to achieve that effect but you really did it on these two.
Also you're making me want to get a GR.. And I never felt that before, so that's something.
>>2851877
>paying a friend
what
>>2852019
i dunno i thought giving him $30 for modelling late into the night was fair
>>2851871
I love the way this storm stands out in the photo. It brings out a lot of color in my opinion.
>>2851940
wow thanks man, it was a little awkward taking that shot, i saw the stairway and how well lit it was, but then realized it was lacking a figure, and i saw 2 kids playing outside, and politely asked them to hold hands and stand at the top of the stairs, then i had to explain to their parents, it was weird man
>>2852025
yeah i loved the way everything was looking that night too. The orange ground with the almost glowing blue sky. I am totally inspired by Alex Burke and the way he processes/tones his landscapes
>>2852031
You should never be afraid to direct people to get the photo you want. People usually don't mind, and it's something I've been trying to do more too. A lot of fun, and it gives you a reason to talk to people (idk if you're into that)
>>2852436
>Some of these are very "sugary" especially this one
lmao
>>2852436
No, they actually have meaningful subjects, good scenery, and haven't had their contrast fucked on a terrible monitor by a guy with bad taste. Want to post your empty beach with your raped clouds again for comparison?
>>2852457
That ain't pastel, homie. I think maybe your monitor is fucky based on how often you oversaturate.
>>2852468
yeah i get that alot, which makes me paranoid when processing shit, i need to get a new monitor. Thanks for the headsup
>>2851864
really black blacks. Whites are just before the point of blown. It feeels like the splotches of brightness are a bit out of place.
Cant say I could do any better though, and I wouldnt say it looks bad either.
>>2852919
Yeah dodging and burning are things i really need to practice on, which is why i gave that one a go, i was trying to add leading lines for the eyes, but i probably went overboard
>>2852926
well keep at it. It drew my attention, and probably quite a few others' too. You gotta start with a solid photo before you can pull of any editing. You got a solid photo to start with.
>>2852930
thanks man, i really am trying to take in as much info from these threads i make as i can, i appreciate the raw feedback on here rather than Facebook or Flickr's soft community full of "amazing picture" with no meaning behind it
>>2852933
well, its not for the faint of heart, but /p/ will keep it real. It's easier to be blunt when you're anonymous.
>>2852975
im flattered, here you go man
