Any crit on the massive list of photos i put up earlier? tried to vary my subjects abit

[QUOTE=TomboPukka;38240007]Any crit on the massive list of photos i put up earlier? tried to vary my subjects abit[/QUOTE] is there any context to the photos or was it more of an experiment of ideas.

[QUOTE=Angoose;38240076]is there any context to the photos or was it more of an experiment of ideas.[/QUOTE] The Bag headded businessman was my take on the recession my tutor told me to just take something that symbolized it so this was what i did. the first one was meant to be raised off the ground it is but it should have been higher but that was to show how the ground is just torn up around you and the bag is meant to represent the faceless part of it as pretty much everybody is facing the recession. the Mud shot was generally how i hear people talk about their working conditions at the moment people having pay cuts people being told they have to work for nothing generally being treated like [B]dirt[/B] < so original and clever but apart from that yeah it was just a test of ideas, any thoughts on composition ect?

It's one thing to be able to capture subjects and compose perfectly, but the second part of it is the post processing to emphasise the subject, create the mood etc etc.

yeah, bopies way of editing his photos are really fucking great.

Winter is here. Fucking snow, so hard to take photos in This is my band: [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/dannimagn/8138783873/][img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8196/8138783873_cb267a318c_z.jpg[/img][/url] [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/dannimagn/8138783873/]Danni - Bliss[/url] by [url=http://www.flickr.com/people/dannimagn/]Dannimagn[/url], on Flickr It's composed of me, me and me.

[QUOTE=/B/rother;38248579]yeah, bopies way of editing his photos are really fucking great.[/QUOTE] While I will agree that he is an excellent editor, you can't undermine that the shots in general are about 95% of what he is doing, which he has definitely proven with his film. Editing is nothing without a great shot underneath.

^agreed

Here's another from the London Pleasure Gardens where my friend was living.

i honestly think it would look more appealing without the border.

Interesting... Thanks bopie!

[QUOTE=/B/rother;38256569]i honestly think it would look more appealing without the border.[/QUOTE] Ah, I'd completely forgotten to remove it after scanning. I think I actually agree with you. I'm not a massive fan of borders on an image, unless it drastically adds to the feel or emotion of the still. Will get on that later methinks.

its flipped, not rotated :v:

Here's another. Taken on the same day as the last two shots.

[QUOTE=GuruLongie;38259764]This is a lot darker than I thought it would be. How do you not lose details when you lighten that up?[/QUOTE] I opened it up in photoshop and by just upping the brightness you can get a similair result
