Great pic!

 

Just make sure you watch your horizon line... all three of the photos are slightly crooked

 

I don't know what to say to this....

 

Ian, I didn't do any more editing then what had already been done, I just cropped it more.

 

Well I don't know Senor Diaz that well or I might have done that lol. I know its supposed to tell a story, and when I see the shot, it formulates a certain image in my mind, but when I snap it, the image doesn't look the same...does this make sense?

 

.......

yeah kinda like photojornalism

 

It totally makes sense.

I have an idea. Pick a focal length. Any between 18-55mm will do. Now lock the lens at that focal length. Find a subject and start shooting. Remember, no changing the focal length on the camera. But you can do it by moving around. Close up, far away, down low, up high--all are ways you can move around and control how your subject looks in the frame.

Try working with the sun at your back or off to the side just so you don't have to deal with it. Whatever you do, capture your subject as many different ways as you can at the same focal length.

I think you'll be surprised at your result. More importantly, it will help get you to your goal of seeing things differently.

nothing wrong with a little bit of grain

 

Last one for ya'll to criticize. One of my favorites that I took actually..its on my desktop I like it so much. lol I know it prolly doesn't tell that much of a story I just like the way it turned out.

 

I like it. Looks pretty peaceful too. Light's good. Has depth.

 

aaron if it makes you feel any better, i like the one with the light poles. fuck a story, we aint pros. and all my pictures are for the most part edited a bit. i just add the color that the camera couldnt capture. a lil bit of saturation and contrast goes a long way lol.

 

Thanks...I've got a few in the works right now..




This bottom one didn't turn out how I wanted...it was way off center so I had to rotate it down...hence losing half the pic in the process..oh well, live and learn.

 

Here's a couple more... Ive got so many hidden away on my hard drive.



Didnt get the angle i wanted on this one

 

too lazy to edit or crop. from todays walk

 

I'm a photography noob but this pic is just too cool not to post here.
Sunset atop Mauna Kea, technically the highest mountain in the world
(So I forgot the camera at home, and had to take this from my Droid... Yeah, it pissed me off too :/)
