First attempt at nature photography
 

So I have been doing fetish and music photography for a few years, but this week I have started playing at nature pictures. Here's my first attempts. Any good?

I am not a good 'critic', but what I see looks good.

Looks pretty good to me..good eye

I like them. The third one seems a little out of focus though.

Yeah, that one didn't come out perfect, but I just liked it. No clue who the bride is, just a lucky shot :)

First attempt at nature pornography

on a serious bizness note. the flower pic would look pretty nice sharpened a bit and with the colors brought up a little. would make a nice wallpaper.

Not bad at all...

I like the first pic the best. :2 cents:

nice pics

I think if you had the flower as the focus item without another flower in the background, it would be more powerful... good shots though.

Nice pics..the first one is real nice

Very Nice... Thx

looks very nice!

Yeah I can fix that... the botanical gardens gets pissy when you start clipping off flowers to make your pics look better :)

I like the first two pics.

nice pics :thumbsup

looks good first one esp

they looks nice! :winkwink:

That last pic is a good one

Good composition in the first pic, although I'd have shifted a bit to the right to eliminate the big vertical cactus that's outta focus. Perhaps crop it out.

There was a doorway to the right so that was my best option, cropping should work.

Looks nice I like the flower

I'd say those are NICE shots :)

Nice shots :)
The first Mexican-style picture reminds me a permanently moving-rolling plant of deserts called tumbleweed. Just like in a western movie:

good looking pics.. thumbsup

I really like the pictures. Here an example of what my 7 year old daughter did...
What do you think?

What do you think?
 

I actually use a couple for screen savers. I got proud because she takes pictures better then me on the same camera. LOL

Great pics for a 7 year old. She's got a good eye... I vote photo/art classes for that kid!

Turtle Rock

Much improved :thumbsup

i like the 1st - I would have captured a little more of the top of the wheel. (unless there was a disturbance up there)

just to have it finish out part of the top right side... just seems, unfinished...

it would place the points of interest a little more...

ask aaron about the ... 3 point rule is it? something like that...



anyway...

the turtle rock pic i dig too, up the contrast a little... it will enhance it a bunch... possible even the saturation..


this is just what i would do :P


youre on the road to some good work though for sure...


what are you shooting?

I'm using an Olympus Evolt e-500 with a 40-150mm lens (80-300 equiv) I know many prefer Nikons but I think Zukio/Olympus has some of the finest lenses on the market right now.

looking good mate :thumbsup

not too shabby

Nice, work hard and do better with time! :)

you have a good eye

Yea.. the number one problem I see is just get closer to the flower pic.

you are doing good..

also if you want to have fun.. sometime try HDR outside..

My honest opinion is that these photos are amateur at best. You'll get there but the journey is just beginning for you.
