I'd like /p/'s opinion on my photography.

I know it's mostly shit but I'd like to be really good one day.

Tell me what I'm missing or doing wrong?

(Ignore the painting stuff, that's where I put all my art, too.)

Also is there a better place for photo hosting besides Flikr or dA? Traffic wise?

Did you photoshop this?

It's either out of focus, or noisy as all hell, or has had some filter applied - it's just not crisp.

Other than that...there isn't really a lot that's all that interesting in it.

/No I will not go through a deviationgallery

It's from a scanned print.

Next time, scan the negative.
What the f*ck is the point of scanning a print?

About the only good way to scan a negative is with a drum scanner, at least to get anything better than minimum internetz quality. Knew a guy who had them mounted in slides, and took a 10 megapixle picture of the projected image. Turned out really well.

a drum scanner is not a scanner that takes negatives only okay
a decent film scanner on ebay is like 250 bucks or so these days, that'll scan at 2400 dpi or so depending on how much you wanna spend

Well I'd prefer it if you didn't dick around with the photo in photochop in order to make it look DUDE LIKE SO COOL FUCKING VIDEO GAMEZ HDR IS AWESOME with the shitty overblown saturation and contrast, but... other than that, it's a decent picture. Just cut the PP shit out, it makes you look stupid and the only people who like those photos are stupid people.

And here's a 100% crop of that shot.

Doesn't look much worse than an unedited DSLR shot at the pixel peeping level, and remember you're pixel-peeping a ~27 megapixel file here rather than a 6-12MP file the average DSLR gives you.

Either BUY one for cheap or have somebody else, even a fucking bestbuy or whatever scan them for you.
Scanning a print = instafail, specially on glossy paper.

Thing about that photo is, I didn't shoop it, besides cropping the motherfucker.

It just came out like that naturally. It was before dawn, I don't know if that might have affected the color that way?

No, it didn't just come out like that, "motherfucker" ooh you're a tough guy. You fucked it up while scanning or something. Things don't look like that.
