January 7, 201214 yr Really like them all, besides nr. 3. I'd say you focused a bit too far. Those 2 ends a bit closer to us would be more interesting to be focused on, methinks. And is it ice that has been driven on on pic nr 4? So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc
January 8, 201214 yr For your nature photos, the ones including the sky, I'd suggest taking 2 exposures of the same scene. A normal exposure and one with 2-4 stops under exposure so then you can use the underexposed image as a layermask for the normal exposed image. Know what I mean? Open the normal exposed image in photoshop, then drag in the under exposed image on top, add a layer mask on the top layer, use the gradient tool and add a gradient going up to down so the image blends together.
January 8, 201214 yr My personal favorite is b&w of the beach. Overall though I like the majority of the lot, however I feel you should have focused on the coffee shops sign over the flower pot as it's more of the center point of the photo.

Truth be told, I would have take 2 exposures and done what you have said. However, I was... how do you say it. Quite high, really. During the taking of the shot. But yeah, agreed completely.

But yeah, agreed completely.I hope you still have the RAW file, you can lower the exposure in there and make the sky look all pretty and that's all you need.
