If that's all you're gonna post...post to a recent photo thread.

Srsly? It's crooked as fuck and I have no idea what you want your subject to be.

Before you take a photo, ask yourself "What is my subject?" and "Will my viewers' eyes be drawn to my subject?"

It's an interesting building, for sure, but what's the big draw to the photo? What makes it good? I'm not seeing anything senpai.

>>2863158
Same as above, minus a cool building.

There's a difference between bokeh and being totally out of focus. if there's nothing in focus in your picture it's just a blurry mess. Why not focus on the tree bark at least to contrast in texture with the soft background?

>>2863161
You gotta work on your focus senpai and figure out what you want your subject to be.

Here's an example of a decent closeup that manages to capture some of the elements you want to include in your photos. Forgive the quality I just pulled it off my Instagram.

Highlights:

-Clear subject in focus of a bee on a clover

-Viewer is drawn to the center of the photograph, with the slightly off center clover head being aesthetically pleasing

-Soft focus clover head in the foreground incorporates not just a pleasant sense of depth, bu also captures the three predominant colors of the background and foreground like a disco ball, those being green, yellow, and white.

-Shallow depth of field gives an interesting midground in the bottom right hand corner of dried grass and soft background of blades of green grass.

It's like you're painting a painting senpai. you need to figure out what you're painting and how you're going to incorporate other elements of the scene to enhance your subject.

If you do it successfully you have a subject that you are drawn to, but the rest of your image is easy on the eyes and slightly interesting in color, shape, or texture.

Wtf have you done with those shadows
Why are they greenish
This feels like a shitty Instagram filter

It's a film look, anon. It's trendy.

Btw when I say 'film' I actually mean cheap expired instant film stored in my hot humid basement for years, shot on Polaroid with a broken meter that underexposes, scanned with an consumer-grade flatbed scanner, auto white-balanced for the paper color rather than actual neutral tones, with the exposure bumped up.

Ohh and also with a broken ICC color profile that was assumed to be sRGB but in fact was some obscure shit.
