Too grainy.
Poor whitebalance.
Tilted horizons.
Burnt out in places.

Snapshots.

Bad snapshots.


Why not? Compare to Adam's if you will.

I try to be tolerant, but the Lord knows that I'm terrible and deeply flawed. Sorry.

I like the color treatment on #3.

Guys, please be sensitive to each others feelings, especially when they take the trouble to share some piccies for us to look at. We want to promote a place where people are encouraged to share, instead of discouraged due to overly harsh or critical comments. The last thing we want is for this place to turn into a PhotoSig. I know everyone has different tastes and art styles, so do be genuine too, but just do it with a pinch of grace (unless you're commenting in the Photo Critique forum).

I don't want to start editing or deleting posts, but I will if I'm forced to.

I agree re PhotoSig. I don't know whey anyone would post there - so unfriendly - so hyper-critical.

Thats why I think the "critique" section is so helpful. Like it or not, its a useful tool for some. I really like it and comment regularly. I don't comment on "showcase" photos any where near as much because, anything short of "nice photo" is considered unappreciative.

.............If I/we/he/she/they/you don't want critical feedback, then don't post critical feedback. It works both ways...................

Now, back to this subject matter. I LOVE the first shot!! The off angle composition makes the entire photo for me. The remaining two are "nice photos".

Keep posting Don!
