If you have a spare lens around you can turn it around and shoot through it to get fancy macro pics.

two lil ones that I also like but I don't think are as good. They just fit together nicely.

looking for cc on these before sending the magazine who hired me btw
The shadows on the second one need a visit IMO. Left one is good and actually belongs in the pic, the ones on the wall not so much.
Her face on the second one could use a bit more brightening to make it consistent with the other two pics.
But thats nitpicking.
Stellar shots.
Agreed, the 1st and 3rd have a nice friendly glow, whereas the second one seems harsh and dark comparatively.
It fits her expression IMO but it depends on whether you use the shots in composite or not but I guess that's up to your editor not you so maybe get that info, I dunno, I only ever had shots used by a magazine one time and that was pro bono and "can I use them" "yeah" "mkay"-> boing online
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
Also that shot of that girl up there is "to fall in love with" quality, dude.
[QUOTE=Biscuit-Boy;52453211]Agreed, the 1st and 3rd have a nice friendly glow, whereas the second one seems harsh and dark comparatively.[/QUOTE]
yeah the editor didn't give me any direction apart from "landscape" so i thought i'd get a bit of a mix
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
thanks very much folks
First one, the top left hand corner's blurred PC (I guess?) is rather distracting.
Third is my favourite.
I'm going to guess you had a bare speedlite with some trigger to set it remotely. Lighting seems kinda harsh. Are you using any diffuser on your off camera flash?
She works at the university of Dundee right?
Think I saw a documentary she was in about the remains of an executed family in a medieval village or something like that.
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
I really like the third image as well, looks like someone who really loves what they're doing

bzzzzt wrong
two speedlites radio triggered, one with a softbox umbrella thing on it, the other bare. softbox is on her, bare does background
[editline]10th July 2017[/editline]
the light is pretty close in all of them though because i wanted to bring her out from the background and exposed for that

Ahh okay, now I see why the light is soft on her but the background is harsher.
The light on her is more pleasing, but I'm not the biggest fan of the harsh light on the background. Then again, its probably just me
it's how i do all my portraits, one soft light one hard light
look at my flickr and you'll see
[QUOTE====;52451966]I agree with Biscuit Boy about paring down those fireworks shots. They could use some cropping too, the first one for example doesn't look very balanced since it's at the top of the frame, I'd crop it to a square with the firework in the center.
I like the shot of the people standing in front of the firework, but straighten out your horizon and maybe crop off some of the empty space on the left side.[/QUOTE]
Thank you both! I can't improve if I don't know what to fix!
Fireworks seem difficult to capture when you only have really a few angles, cropping would help. I'll go through these again and see what I can change. Maybe new years I might have something better for you all.
[QUOTE=C_Mandrake;52452179]Bought a 35mm camera a while back, sent off my film to get developed about 2 and a half months ago, it was only supposed to take two weeks.
At last, they're finally here, and these are some of my favorites.
