HappyMartin Posted June 17, 2014 Share Escapee. You have a good eye. I like the shot with the bike but.... Please don't take this badly. Chill a little with the saturation slider. Escapee.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaXiMuM Posted June 17, 2014 Share Agreed, you have a good eye and keeping it simple is awesome.I was once told, "it's about the negative spaces make the subject more interesting" If I may, both your pics have, what can be called, distractions. The beach photo has excellent everything, but the beach should either be almost complete, maybe ending near the bottom right, or none at all. I think that would just leave it open enough...The bikes, that front wheel, I don't believe it should be cut off... Both images have a, just quite not right feeling. Remember, you can crop out, but never paint in... But I like your work Jakkals. and Escapee.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp Posted June 18, 2014 Share Nice one Skypie.As for the front wheel and composition, yes the wheel, and I am not saying this was the case here, but often the person seeing the photograph actually have no idea how much room the photographer had for a better composition.

Wyatt Earp Posted June 18, 2014 Share As for colour saturation, yes it's very sketchy, touchy and debatable road, however I think photography is changing and it's becoming an art.Yes it can go from the most ludicrous over processed HDR to the most bland RAW image.In the end of the day ,someone will like it.I believe in content and mood and I feel often a great composition will make a bad , bland or out of focus image look good. On the saturation side of things, I was very tempted to saturate the living daylights out of this image, but the minute I touched the saturation or vibrance slider it became too much, this was taken in RAW with an ND 8 filter, the filter already helps in aiding the colours thus my decision was to try and keep it as natural as possible ,especially with all that golden glow. gummibear, Karooryder, Escapee.. and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uni Posted June 18, 2014 Share The beach photo has excellent everything, but the beach should either be almost complete, maybe ending near the bottom right, or none at all. I think that would just leave it open enough... It's great how everyone has their own perspective on what makes a good photo. Personally i think that composition is just right - the interest for me is on the boats and the cloud formations - the beach forms a break from the blue without detracting from it. A full beach would be too much IMO. Escapee.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
