almost all of these are very, very underexposed.

next time do not get the sun in your frame.

when you do it will make everything else look very dark because the sun is so bright in comparison.

OP here
I was aiming for the sun to be the focal point of the photos.
In most of the photos I tried to cast the rest of the foreground into shadow for dramatic effect. I agree I probably overdid it a little on some.

i heart photo 1. it is, in fact, screwy with the exposure, and you have committed three or four of the Mighty Photo Sins, but it has a soul, it has structure, meaning, drama and it has An Ocean.

it's mostly a matter of style, I am favourably impressed. if i saw this as a print, i would buy it. i would not want it glassed, just framed.

if i took this, i would be proud of myself.

if i posted it anon on a notoriously useless image board, i would hold my head high and chuckle at the retards who didn't like it.

gewd jawb, even if by accident. print it, hang it and look at it every once in a while to remind yourself that you have a touch of the gift, even if everything from here on out stinks like a dead mule.

PROTIP: The generally accepted rule about not shooting with the sun in the picture is to prevent you from getting precisely these shitty results.

Yar, pic one is decent enough. I wish I could see what was going on in the large black expanses on the right though.
