Posting here because so far I've only heard a single criticism of this set and I know I'm not that good.
>> ac !!VPzQAxYPAMA
1. I'm guessing you were going for an overall blue look, but I think this goes beyond "lightly tinted" to "WE NEED O2 IN HERE STAT!"
2. The way the hair's blowing over her face makes her look like she has a mustache. And beard.
>> elf_man !!DdAnyoDMfCe
Yeah, bad hair position.
I like the cyanotic effect, so if that's what you're going for, great. If not, tone it down a bit.

Shit framing is shit. The hair ruins it.

Either this is a shitty shot or that chick's got an epic moustache
>> heavyweather !4AIf7oXcbA
Lighting decent, girl decent, background decent, but the pose suuuuuucks. How was this not an immediate rejection? This is why we motordrive it, people. So girls don't have hairstaches.

Motordrive?

Looks a little bit blurrier than it has any right to at 1/200th. Maybe use a shorter lens?

(I'm guessing this was taken with flash, given the 1/200th speed, so you probably don't have the option of going for more of an EXTREM FAST SHUTTER SPEED)
>> j
>>122970

Yeah, with a flash. Probably without a tripod- I switched back and forth between tripod and handheld.

Shorter lens is a good tip, I found myself tending towards staying zoomed all the way in.

Here, used unsharp and reduced it properly, but I don't know how much it helped.

I like the first one, moustache and very cool white balance included. Maybe frame a little looser.

The second one just seems very plain. You zoomed in on a girl with her head turned and pressed the shutter,

It's not like he couldn't re-take the shot.

I'm really just emulating what I see in magazines. This was my first time shooting a model, first time using a flash off camera, and this is my first DSLR, I've only had it for about two weeks. I haven't had any training in photography, only Photoshop (and video, audio and 3D...), so I'm pretty much proceeding through trial and error.

I hate to say it.. but I don't like any of the shots at all.
You may want to consider taking up some classes to put that gear to some good use :]

oh lol, let's just all buy a xti, wide angle lens and take HDR shots of our coke whore girlfriends.

.... that took balls bro but it's none the less true.

equipment doesn't make the man and /p/ is a constant example. I've seen some awesome stuff come out of point and shoots on this board that are just amazing. i hate to say this is the other end of the spectrum.

J, i would say your next step is to seriously start studying composition. and it seems you are into the studio style but you may want to investigate portraits and other things (architecture/landscape/macro) depending on your lens library.

How the fuck does it take balls to anonymously insult someone over the net?
Aside from your stupidity.. Sure, any shitty ass camera can result in some decent shots.
But it makes us photographers cringe when someone owns something pretty fucking decent and fails to get any good results with it.
(Remember that 5D fag from a few weeks ago who bragged about all his awesome lenses?)

It's like someone owning the most amazing home theater system of around 10k but only watches the fucking Oprah Winfrey show on it.
Cringe fucking cringe.

Get it? :)

what are you raging about?

I agreed with you (not to mention complimented you). Maybe you think I'm the OP though I'm pretty sure I made it clear that I wasn't. Maybe you need to spend more quality time with your camera if you're getting this worked over nothing.
