Long time since I posted some pictures, lets see what my fellow gallerians think about this new shizzle.

I'll give you some critique, photo by photo.

 

1. If you sharpen this one and boost the colours, it would be a great photo! The lighting is great, making the colours really nice and soft. Some nice bokeh in the background as well.

 

2. Really unsharp and the flowers are ugly :# If this photo was in focus, I would like it, make with a more 'widescreen' crop, and it in black and white, I think it would be a fairly nice photo.

 

3. Not the best out of the bunch (see... flowers... bunch... HAHAHAHA...), out of focus, and the lightning is rather dull.

 

4. The lighting in this photo is really harsh, giving you dull colours and a flat picture. You have captured a nice scene though, and the composition of the tress is good. I think again, a coolor aspect ratio and making it black and white and boosting the contrast via levels would bring the best out of this scene. I could be wrong, but it is what I think might look good.

 

5. Really nice colours, really nice lighting. This, and #1 are my favourites. I think you've composed the flowers really well, now you just need to subtlety boost your colours. And the lensflare is a nice touch - no joke.

 

6. You need to crop off the top of the picture, so you just have the wood as your background, and sharpen it to bring out the details. The composition is fairly dull, but I think if you lop the top of the photo and maybe even a bit off the bottom it'll make the flowers more interesting. Very nice depth of focus you have here, Felix, and they are nice flowers. A few touches would make this a decent photo.

 

7. Ehh, not much to say here, a bit out of focus it seems.

 

8. Nice focus, I think you could go with areally desaturated, but not yet black and white loook and a more widescreen-format crop.

 

What camera do you have, may I ask?

Canon EOS 450D

Get a tripod if you are doing macro photography in lowish/dusk light, shutter speeds will slow down at this time of day if you are using an auto mode; but, if you are using the "M" mode on your camera, you should be able to change your shutter speed/aperture and ISO, which may be a good idea on some of your photos.

 

Shiny's pretty much covered everything that I think needs to be improved.
