last assignment

[nesstomo]

hey everybody, I'm on my final assignment, but this is my 1st time posting anything in the forum. I hope I do it right. Anyway, I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I was hoping for a little feedback. 1859218593185941859518596. I cant see my photos here so I cant remember what order they are in the city lights I am struggling with but the rest are landscape, portrait, fast action,abstract and b&w, I think you will be able to work them out.
Feedback please im worried about this one!!!

I. I like it seems clear to me
II. I really really like # 2 I might bump up the contrast just a bit though I really like it could you post it in color?
III. I like the color in # 3 can’t
IV. The eyes are very clear just like they should be
V. The color it the last one is great – really like the clouds
hope that helps and good luck

Hi Sandrac, thanks for your feedback. I wasnt sure myself with the b&w shot so I have done a few more adjustments and will post in colour as well I do like the colour one but thought it would look interesting in b&w. Have also posted a couple of other b&w photos please give me your thoughts on which one you like best.
Thanks for your time and advice.

Hi there I like your series of photos and basically agree with what Sandra had to say. In the second series the contrast is better in the first shot although I really like your last B&W. Nice composition and interesting machinery. Not sure if you could retake this as the missing bit of 'foot' or end of a lever worries me a bit. You could also try upping the contrast a bit as well and see what it looks like. Really interesting shapes and textures in this one.

Hi Shirley, thanks for taking the time to look. I wasnt sure about the sheering machinery and the reason why its cut off on the front as there were wool bales there that wouldnt fit into the photo nicely so I tried cutting them out. This is at a station we visit every Feb so next trip im hoping I can get a good shot.
Thanks again :)

Hi Vanessa,

I love your images, and also agree with Sandra's & Shirley's comments, so I won't repeat all.

I rather like your colorful crayon shot in the first series... very artistic and wonderful colors.

The contrast of your first B&W image is much nicer in your edited version, but I must say that I love the color version of this more. The nice rich reds just have that wonderful outback feeling. You could probably afford to add a touch of saturation and/or play with Curves in Photoshop just to enhance the colors a bit more, or even darken a little.


Out of the B&W images, I too really like the last one. Nice composition, varying tones, shadows and lighting.

Good luck Vanessa with your final assignment, and have a wonderful weekend away. I know you will capture some great images.

Hi Vanessa, ahh sheering machinery. I still really like this shot and you could try cropping ( & it needs a slight bit of straightening) to give a more pleasing cut off point, just a thought.
