think like storm clouds approaching type feel, but less literal

No, if anything the guy is smiley and looks like a skinny beardless santa claus, and that hipster woman in the background is anything but intimidating. Looks like a normal bopie shot, just a touch more contrasty and underexposed compared to the usual. Edit: If I had to pin it on the happiness scale with 0 being sad, 5 being neutral, and 10 being :D, it'd honestly be a 6 or 7.

your colours are on point at the moment Salmon

funny you say that - In my opinion the photos look a little too 'burnt'.

I agree with them seeming burnt, but he pulls it off. It has character. [editline]yo[/editline] Thanks for the input on the last one, got another snap for y'all. Don't take it too seriously hah.

Went for a clearer clean process, though the plain beige wall behind him kinda kills it and exposes the noise a bit too much.

Found a program that stacks images to make star trails so I've been messing with it using old pics from a time lapse with interesting results.

[QUOTE=bopie;39630898]I agree with them seeming burnt, but he pulls it off. It has character. [/QUOTE] I agree. The pinky oranges are something I've not seen often before and personally i think they give it a unique look which i only associate with Sam. In a good way.

I tend to not like images that are just motion blurs but that one strikes me as nice, I love the post, and I love that you can actually tell there was a dog in the scene despite the blur

The reds in these images seem really saturated in comparison to the rest of the colors. Is that what you were going for? Great shots regardless.

I dunno, the super over exposure doesn't really do it for me

I think they mean that your photos have really strong colours in one bit of the spectrum but not as much in the others, in some photos this can look good, in some it looks bad [editline]18th February 2013[/editline] like if you were red colourblind, so you would pump up the red channel because it looks unsaturated to you(I know this isn't how it actually works but w/e)
