Went out and bought a sensor cleaning kit. Cost me a fortune, but look at the results!

How much PP are you doing?
I'm not against PP, I can just never tell how much of an image is PP and how much of it is just really good shooting.

Overall these seem a little oversaturated and a little dark, but they're pretty good. Kinda... postcard-style I guess.

>>205128
A little too much processing on this one though. The halo around the building is pretty distracting and it's starting to feel really HDR.

posting some stuff again, 1st time testing HDR. Im new to photography and I dont have a tripod yet so its a bit messy.

Not much. Levels, curves, sometimes a warming or cooling layer, plus dodge and burn.

Horray, symmetry. Neat. That's how you take an ordinary photo subject and make it mo betta.

>>205122
Eh, post-processing's neat if not underexposed. And I know that's what you were going for, but I'm not sure if it works.

>>205125
Your clouds are blurry, not necessarily a bad thing. Also, try a lower f-stop to avoid diffraction, I don't thing your DoF will suffer too much, it's worth a shot. However, like a lot of your photos, this one has the "lol, DC" style in a bad way. You're getting way too much posterization there. Again, try to cut back a little in the digital darkroom.

>>205126
Kind of boring. You made it okay though. Was the landscape from between the fence there nice? Post some of those.

>>205128
MOVE. THE FUCKING. BOTTLE.
Kind of boring me actually. The building just doesn't do anything for me. The other side of just pier and beach looks like it would be more aesthetically pleasing. Nice try at the different angle though.

>>205135
Blam-o. Nice. Needs moar thirds though, maybe a panoramic crop focusing on the empty sky? Maybe lighten up your foreground a bit? I dunno, that latter wouldn't be your style though, lol.

>>205147
Better. Maybe best here? It's the waves.
>> Anonymous
>>205154
Very nice, dig the scale and film-like quality of the colors. Clouds... can either be distracting or add to it. That's up to the viewer. Great shot though, THIS might be the best here, lol.

>>205156
Kinda boring. Not bad, but it doesn't stop me from turning the page/exiting the tab.

How do you like shooting with it? I'm assuming you rented or borrowed a friend's?

>>205151
HOLY SHIT, IT'S A MAGIC EYE! lulz.

Thanks for the honest critique. I agree with all of what you said.

Moving on, have some delicious 800 ISO.

Sorry, it referring to the 1ds

Always a great pattern/affect, but you probably should've gone with a higher f-stop to flatten it a little and maybe give it more of a mindfuck quality, you know?

Those things really perform at high ISOs, don't they. Too bad I shoot with Olympus :(

Loving it. Borrowed. The full-frame is great, the viewfinder is huge and noise is no problem. Other than that, it's a heavy fucking brick and everyone glared at me when I "attempted" to use it for "street" photography.

>>205157
The view was kickass. It was nice and breezy and I sat there for a good half hour enjoying the sunset. However, the pictures all look like shit. Pic related.

Little brick house in the lower left & trees are starting to get jagged, as well as a lot of the straight lines in the parking lot.

It's not as bad as a lot of his earlier stuff, but it's enough that it's visibly obvious that he used the filter.

That camera goes to waste in your hands and most likely whoever you borrowed it from. With this exception of this one (barely) I would just toss away everything else.

what ever you're doing in photoshop is making that person look too unrealistic.

would've been cooler if you could see the top of the pier on the left side.

probably my favourite, apart form the light.
