[QUOTE=lotusking;36419967]well they may not be the most interesting things, but I enjoy adding meaning and atmosphere to the somewhat meritless or benign.
I think I achieved that sort of well in the window shots.[/QUOTE]
The hallway one is pretty nice imo, I like the ambience.

Went to a Ferrari's Owners Day on the 11th of june, but forgot to post pictures from it here. The weather that day was really horrible (cloudy and rain) and i forgot my circular polariser filter, but still I managed to get some nice pictures imo.

CC is welcome ofcourse.
i can't make out any kind of subject what so ever, and from what i can see it's not very interesting. Maybe find some new subjects or try and photographing something in an area that you'd like. (street/architectural/model/candid) e.t.c.

Excuse the watermark, this photo was for a website that i do work for.
I made this as a joke because I have this Australian friend who acquired my phone number and now she won't stop harassing me by sending text messages which I cannot reply to (because phone bills). She has unlimited international texting, so I'm stuck.
So I took this :v:

Well they're fine, it's just that it seems like the cars were static, frozen. Try adding motion blur next time (shutter 1/100, move camera with subject)

They kind of vanish in the background but it depends if you want it to be like that or not but I guess for a photo that is about the band it is not so good.

hate the end of the page
I have a few things here:

The Battleship Wisconsin - Norfolk, Virginia

Falling Spring - Near Covington, Virginia.
[editline]21st June 2012[/editline]
The reason there's a different colored corner on the bridge is that there was some idiot trucker that tried to clear the bridge but knocked off that corner in the process. That's the replacement.
I took a picture of the sun with a variable ND filter and then this happened

I tried experimenting with taking self portraits while using bulb the other night. I think this is the best one.

Candid shot while exploring an abandoned sports center
I went with a friend to explore an abandoned prison two weeks ago and it was pretty sweet. The entire place was filled with graffiti. They are tearing the place down so we only were able to visit about half of the place but the buildings that were left are the taller ones so they were pretty cool. In one building we had a smart idea to enter the basement, we almost got to the corner of the basement opposite to the stairs when a huge ass vulture spread its wings and scared the hell out of us. We also got there right before the sun started to set so the lighting was beautiful.

I like the shots but I feel like I could have done better, Any thoughts?[/QUOTE]
i really like the second and third shot, really nice feels to them. however, if i could make a suggestion with the first, next time, try not to get so much lens flare. i feel it really takes away from the quality of the image. i feel it lacks a bit of subject too. for instance, you could've had someone walking through the doorway outward, it would've fit well since it's a prison, and it would've been like someone walking to their freedom as they exit the prison. also, on the fourth, i feel there wasn't enough city in the image, and a little too much darkness/foliage at the bottom of the image. overall, interesting images and story regardless. :)
edit: damn, a lot of feel's in there.

Is this too saturated? I've been playing with vibrancy but it's difficult to know when to stop.

I'm aware of this, I just wanted to know if it's too saturated so I don't over-saturate pictures that aren't of my desk.

To ask if it's over-saturated.
[QUOTE=David Tennant;36457628]Too ask if it's over-saturated..[/QUOTE]
why don't you try the editing style on a photo that has actually had some effort put into it? isolating a technical aspect like that is so pointless, a photo is the sum of all of its elements, not one aspect devoid of context.

I just wanted to know if others thought it was over-saturated so I can tone it down in future photographs as I feel that I'm over-saturating a lot of my shots but I don't have honest feedback to gauge it on, no need to become hostile, I'm finding it difficult to get life-like colours (donhonk, as seen above) without it looking silly.
H4Z3Y you didn't need to be such a dick - all he asked was if it was too saturated, which you could have easily answered in one line.
