Basically, a bunch of retoasts all bundled up. I'd like CC On these in particular because I think they're my best stuff as of late.

These are honestly really bad choices for a portfolio. You really need to look deep into what you find interesting about photography, and take that subjuct and experiment with it Posting pictures of peoples hands, flowers, and a dude sitting on top of a truck isn't interesting - at least these days. Look at this guys style in photography, take a good look at what kind of photos he takes. [url]http://www.flickr.com/photos/luke_sci/page3/[/url] Overall check flickr for inspiration. Really I don't see anything interesting in your photos.
[QUOTE=The golden;17116038]4th is the only one I like. The rest have either too many overexposed areas, or they're just dull and bland.[/QUOTE] it's black and white...It's the only one that IS dull or bland or uninteresting...it's been done a bazillion times or whatever.

[b]Edit:[/b] Not that candid shots are a bad thing, they're just a [b]completely[/b] different style from the stuff I do. I do nature photography and am going to be getting into outdoor portraiture for some people's senior pictures.

What the people need are shots of explosions, deadly animals, fights, and war zones.
You have, an m4?
The first two with people in them I dislike a lot, the others are pretty good.
I like the first one.
these are pretty boring, i wouldn't be impressed if i was looking through someones portfolio and saw them, i would just go "meh" and move on with my life
I really like the B&W one, but the others don't interest me, sorry :(
that is exceptionally boring photography, sorry.
You should get more people shots imo
[QUOTE=Adbor;17138859]You should get more people shots imo[/QUOTE] I'll have more people shots soon, since I'm doing a few people's senior pictures. I don't know how artsy they'll turn out though. [IMG]http://c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/104/l_b04fd71686e54ff19b81476dc1304d5d.jpg[/IMG] There's one of my teachers to hold you over until then
That photo of the guy on the vehicle is awesome, I've never seen someone sitting like that in my life, see, this is a reason I think the USA is far more laid back about things (the people anyhow)
The guy in bottom-right corner looks straight into my soul.

Pretty generic photography in my opinion.
I feel like the third one on OP don't fit well to the rest but they are all good
The varied opinions in this thread are hurting my brains. It's either a hit or miss with all of you
The compositions don't seem engaging to me, too much is centered imos [editline]11:48PM[/editline] tbh you should take some more pictures of naked 15 year old girls if you ever want to go anywhere

Also I think you have me confused with brian [editline]11:54PM[/editline] Ok, after further examination these are full of bad and I don't know why I decided to put these into my portfolio, the only ones here I really like after looking closer is the court house and zac sittin on his car. So here's some better stuff.

[QUOTE=TH89;17147653] This one seems grotesquely nihilistic to me, somehow It's very disturbing [editline]12:57AM[/editline] Was that intentional or am I simply projecting my own misanthropy[/QUOTE] It was funny to me
[QUOTE=Perfumly;17115305][IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3480/3744515356_0c0c087b7d.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] that's the deal with it dude
I really liked the one with the guy on the truck actually. It's really cool and has a laid back feel to it. Good job.

I'm not trying to pin you down, I'm just curious.

The girl in blue is like "Rrrgh let me go!!!" while the other is like "AHAHAHLOLOLOL I'm HIGH"
[QUOTE=Performual;17153958]How do you find it nihilistic? I'm not trying to pin you down, I'm just curious.[/QUOTE] It's hard to explain Somehow it seems to take what looks like a very genuine expression of joy, and strip it of all value. The picture seems to be mocking the subjects.
