This picture annoys the fuck out of me. I've done a shitload of PP, but I just can't make the light and colors in their faces look right. Any ideas? It looks too unnatural imo.

Some say that corruption is an art form... I guess that's what I get for spending $2.50 on an SD card.

First try at multiple exposures. Today the moon was 14% bigger and 30% brighter so sounded like a good time to try it.

sometimes you just get a shot that you can't work with. for me I've noticed its usually the ones shot in hard sunlight - it fucks with the skin tones and looks bad no matter how you expose it.

eg.

does anyone have tips for pictures of the sky/moon at night? usually mine come out as blobs of white light.

these are literally my first night shots with this camera:

He just wants to improve. He complains a lot in the Facebook Facepunch Photographer's chat that people aren't harsh enough on him, that he tires of everyone going "Amazing work!".

there's a [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/steveotto/4874808336/]picture of my brother in drag[/url] as a joke (before i even considered photog as a hobby) and it has the most views out of all my pictures. it consistently gets referrals from these 'sissyboy' sites. shits weird.
