I don't know man, there doesn't seem to be a single image in the set that stands out for me? The colours are really washed out too, maybe try boosting the vibrance a bit and playing about with the skin tones?

Good editing mate, really solid and no obvious errors - maybe do a reshoot where you take it a bit wider? get more of the bathroom in there?

Thank you! That's as wide as I could get it, haha. That bathroom is really, really tiny.
i've been shooting a lot of pictures while hanging out with friends, partying etc.

Honestly mate, this is the only strong photo of the set. The rest look really bland, maybe its just the editing? First one's are okay too

i'm glad you like that shot :smile:
i surely need to step up my editing game though, that's for sure. i just have a hard time figuring out where to start.
anyways, it's great getting some comments from you guys!
[editline]16th June 2014[/editline]
tbh i just slightly tweak sliders in lightroom till it looks good, but it feels like i need to advance on it.

last from london.
I've great interest in Photograhy, but I just don't get that much of a chance to do it properly.
For some reason, Adobe Lightroom have been really motivating for me to start shooting as it's just a blast to edit raw!
Anyway, stole my GF's camera and I've been shooting at dawn/night the last two days,

Done with the dump.
One thing that I'm always scared of is that I oversaturate or give way to much contrast in the picture. Would love some feedback!
Anyway, it's my first post here - Always been so inspired by you guys and felt that I finally wanted to join :smile:
Don't get out that much to do photography, but I'll hope that I can do and post some more here.
hot damn that third one is strong

Kinky. How did you get the arm to uh... do... that?
[QUOTE=BFG9000;45125774]Kinky. How did you get the arm to uh... do... that?[/QUOTE]
Haha, shooting-wise, I just photographed my arm and hand in different positions. Editing-wise, I just put each photo on top of each other and just masked away.
[B]EDIT:[/B] Be warned, if you try this, keep in mind that you may need to do some yoga before shooting the photos. Also, keep in mind that it took me about two hours of straight editing to get everything right.

Ah, that's what I thought. But what really bothers me is how the hand in the middle was able to twist into that position in the first place (the elbow suggests that the shoulder would be above the rim of the tub). You're in the bathtub, right? Did you edit your torso out of the shot?

Yeah, I wanted to add a twist to the shot. For that particular arm I was outside of the tub, while with all the other hands and arms I was inside the tub. I can gladly post the photo that I used for the middle of the shot. I'd rather not post the other ones, as I was in dumb-looking positions, haha.
[B]EDIT:[/B] Almost forgot to mention, I took a background shot so I could mask out my other body parts in the shots.
Last image before I go to sleep.
