9 Years Ago

Hello And I'm Back

It's been just about a year since I stepped into this group and was using a S3 for my photos. It wasn't the best I admit, but I have learned a bit since then. Now I am using a Canon T5 and have been practicing. I would again like more feedback as to what I could work on.

Thank you very much.

you can start by rotating these so they are correct, no keywords - no one will find you, no description either. sunset isn't in focus, a tripod is needed here, hard to say if it will print.

this may be new and exciting for you, but it really isn't. it's also really small and not really in focus, looks like a phone shot.

this one is also very small, its hard to believe it came from the new camera. this probably won't print due to clarity. interest wise its really not either, its just a flag, mostly tree, could use almost anything to anchor it - a sunset for example.

this is not in focus at all, it won't print. if it was clear, it wouldn't be that interesting because it's mostly black. you can't even tell why its lit.

a flag you always want wind, this is all bunched up and its noisy and probably won't print. macro's - you don't want wind.

while this is clear, this does not show off the camera.

ideally what you want to work on is:

1. interest
2. composition
3. clarity.
4. story.

a good picture is interesting and usually not something anyone can do. you have to leave the stage of-- ooh look at that thing i have to get a shot of it... unless it's something really unusual, i would go with something else.

EDIT

1. there is no way to see what you wrote a year ago.
2. i'm not looking at what you made a year ago.
3. if you wanted certain things critiqued, point to those things. i have no idea what is new and not.

4. you got what you came here for.

Mike if you went to a previous post I had about a year ago some of those shots were NOT taken with the new camera. They were taken with the phone camera. The only ones that I have uploaded with the new camera: ID Tag, and a Kansas Sunset. Yes I need to rotate those, but I was more wanting feedback, and while you did give me some, it is quite evident that I need to find a more suited forum to get insight from.
