Best one so far..

But you need to learn better B/W Conversion, you need stronger whites, and darker blacks.

Atm this is Gray/darker gray

And that's more or less it.

Yeah, I had to underexpose for the sky, and there wasn't much I could do in post without killing the sky either. I just could not find a happy medium with that shot.
>> Liquefied !!CF1+3tSFCce
That first shot is fantastic. The composition is excellent. The rest of them don't do much for me.
>> Honest So You Dont Have To Be !9UISPtwBPo
>>249804

Dosnt rly work....

Poor composition, the lines lead in, but the background lines slope down, almost back to the first leading lines.... just dosnt work, and feels very forced.

>>249805

Very insta art... but i like the dog there (is it a dog.... looks like a wolf!)

Could have done more, but this scene is nothing without the dog, and am guessing itn ever stood there for long, so good snapshot, but not much more.

>>249809

I like this one, unusual perspective to be shooting from, An i like the distortion youve got from shooting so wide.

>>249811

YES!! Very nicely done, my only problem is the foreground, while these shots do benefit from foreground interests, this one is FAR to strong, drop it into photoshop, and soften it up, blur them a bit.... that will improve it if done right..

While your there work on the colors, aswell, i want to see the lovely rich blues and greens!

>>249813

No.. just no :P

Bokeh dose not work well with these types of shots, never has done, never will.

>>249815

Its half a horses head....

Youve got a nice subject, then destroyed it :P, learn from this mistake!

>>249817

Holiday snap shot, nothing more... (I never knew ireland had art in the style of Grim Fandango)

>>249820

Close, but no...

That wall is far to strong, and destroys what could have been a nice shot, the path should have slowly lead the eye in, not "BAM WALLL!!", but its a good holiday capture for you.

>>249822

Nah, Not enough going on

>>249823

has a nice "old style" feel to it....

As i said in my other post... work on your processing, you need stronger blacks and whites..

>>249826

Already commented :P

>>249829

Holiday snapshot..

All in all, not bad...

You seem to understand the basic rules of composition, which is good, and rear of D40 users, keep at it and you will improve.
>> Honest So You Dont Have To Be !9UISPtwBPo
>>249831

LEARN PHOTOSHOP!!

Seriosly :P this is very simple :P

Look up "masking"... this will very easily allow you to have two serpeat exposures on one image, then you paint (or delete) the other parts back in

Thanks for the feedback. I mostly consider them a better class of vacation photo, given our time and weather constraints. And while I love landscapes, I don't have tons of experience with them, not my usual subjects.
>>249804
It was sort of forced, given the location, but I feel like it stabilizes the background. Attached photo was in the same general area.
>>249805
Yeah, I liked the overall effect with the dog in there. I think the overall composition work though, but it was a quick shot, dog was all over the place.
>>249809
Blarney Castle has really nice gardens. Thanks.
>>249811
Thanks. I dunno, I like the effect in this case.
>>249813
Yeah, it's a little too out of focus.
>>249815
Yeah, experimentation. I think I need a little more landscape visible.

These two are wonderful.

>>249813
Why the hell did you focus on the plants in the foreground? It looks bad. If the whole scene had been in focus, I think this shot would have been great.
>> Anonymous !SDPEsPMnww
Also, the composition and colors are very nice. Makes me want to go out and take some more landscape photos right now!
>> ac !!VPzQAxYPAMA
Some of these are quite good.

(Will give a more detailed critique later, but for now just wanted to save it from page 10)
