So I went to Palm Springs over the weekend and I took a whole mess of photos. I took hundreds of photos, but these are my favorites. I also couldn't resist shooting off a couple of HDR shots. Critiques would be nice?

On the trip back home I took some photos of the windmills. I tried my best considering I was moving in excess of 70 mph at the time.

Quite a boring sign.

>>48013
More interesting, but that car is a little bit
distracting.

>>48014
>>48016
Autofail.

>>48017
Could be better from a different angle.

>>48019
Autofail. ...but looks nice.

>>48020
Boring.

>>48021
Why not in landscape orientation? That sky is very plain.

>>48024
Not really.

>>48025
OK, this one is good. Something interesting, something fun, that's the way to go!

>>48027
Boring.

>>48029
Hmm.. almost interesting.

>>48030
Autofail.

>>48031
Nice, I like it! DOF a little bit too shallow, maybe try to cut off the bottom out-of-focus area.

>>48032
>>48033
Quite cool.

>>48034
>>48036
No, not really.

>>48038
>>48039

>>48041
Nothing special.

>>48042
Oh, my favorite so far, probably could be better, but very good!

>>48045
>>48047
>>48049
Yes, nice, but not as good as the previous one.

>>48048
No, this doesn't work so good for me.
>> OP
Thanks for the critique Anonymous. I could seriously spend a whole afternoon taking pictures of those windmills too. I also have pictures of my family and such which came out much more interesting, however, I have my reservations about posting them on 4chan.

Note about HDR: I am quite aware of how repulsive HDR is to a lot of true photographers and it's being compared to the overuse of lens flare. I seriously can't resist using it, though. Haha, sorry.
>> ac
tmp;dr

Maybe try posting less than 500 pictures at a time?
>> OP
>>48103

Understandable. I posted 29 photos total, however it doesn't mean you have to look at all of them. I thought you could just pick and choose?
>> Anonymous
did you know theres actually a reason to do HDR other than just for HDR sake? the one shot that could have benefit from it is>>48040but you failed it.
>> Anonymous
How did you do the show/hide-thing, in your posts, OP? I've been dying to know how, for my web-site.
>> OP
>>48112

That has nothing to do with me personally. It's called EXIF data and most photos come with them, albeit many times modified with a post-processing program. Maybe try looking for some javascript pertaining to EXIF data?
