Default Photo critique...nightshade and fatbooty LOOK!

Took some pics today, while skating. Looking for some critiquing, more so of the composition then anything else. The photos were edited by the skater, my friend...kinda made them less sharp imo. Here is some:


180 over huge gap

roll down bank

royal

royal different angle

royal sequence

crazyyyy wave rail[/quote]

1st and 2nd pic focus seemed to be more in between on environment and skater rather than singular unit, making the entire picture looking a little bit "blurry'

3rd & 5th pic is very obvious that it was edited, look at the wall.

4th pic is too intense--overexposure?

6th pic same problem as 3 and 5, look at his jeans.


im learning about photography as i go along too, so don't pay too much attention to my comments.

Needs fill flash which would help a ton.
Don't cut limbs off (hand in last shot).

First shot needs to be edited again but it may have some potential. The sky has lines in it for some reason.

Third shot and the royal sequence are probably the best of the bunch though and if you had some fill flash they would probably be pretty close to money.

Yeah, the light was lacking. I just exposed them more. A good flash is probably my next investment.

ABout the limb, i actually took 2 other similiar shots with him in frame. I dont know why he didnt use them. I will post it tomorrow.

The first shot is actually........fake. Haha He put a photo on a photo.

Great to hear! His editing made the pictures kind of blurry and wavey. I will post some of the unedited tomorrow.

Thanks for all the feedback. It was my first skating shoot, and first shoot with my digital rebel. I really appreciate your comments.

on your next outing try tilting the camera slightly either left or right about 10 degrees to give it a unique offset appearance.
