Thanks man, I really appreciate feedback!

So much depth of field.

Also day 32, random Indian statue.

If you haven't edited these, great timing, if you have, great editing.

Like the contrast in day 32 as well; The sunlight kinda divides it into a warm and cold section color wise :u

Now if only their were blue houses and a warm summer field on the left, and a wintery village on the right :P

Thanks, I try
Also day 32, random Indian statue. Haha yeah

Not all of them, but usually I edit them, just to get them perfect

Day 32

[Kevin]

Turtle club.

Best club ever guys.

[Littledude]

do you edit any of these pictures?
some of the colors seems unnaturally vibrant

[Tammy]

Stop turning the saturation up to 11.

It would then be on me man. At least if I am understanding it right.


Also does anybody know which lens would be more vital to my photography arsenal?

1: Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Nikkor Wide Angle Zoom Lens  $1,999.00

2: Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Nikkor Wide Angle Zoom Lens  $1,889.00

3: Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor Zoom Lens  $2,399.00

I've been thinking the 20-200mm would be the most useful to me right now, my only lens that isn't a kit lens is a 35mm f/1.8, so I feel as if a nice zoom lens would be a great addition. I'm just asking because I'm not exactly sure.

I would get the 24-70mm first because it is a good lens for general use. Lots of photographers love that focal length for a walkaround lens because it's versatility.

I don't usually turn it up that high, but point taken maybe my pictures are to saturated. Also thank you for your recommendation on the lens, I'll probably get this one first now.

Day 36

[Littledude]

Yes

yeah it thought so cause pictures like this one

look really cool but super unlikely with the colors.
This actually looked like a painting or a picture of a 3d model or something

Day 38

[Tammy]

Day 36 looks really interesting, I like it.

Day 37 seems like a random snapshot to me. Nothing special

Day 38 is meh, subject matter is pretty cliche, and it's just eye level, nothing interesting composition wise. In my opinion, the depth of field is too shallow as well.

Day 39 is a mess. Your Facebook friends will probably love the style, but as legitimate photography I don't like it much. The sky looks really neat, the picture could just use some better execution. I don't like how only a little of the ground is showing, but it looks like you might have not included more because there are other things you didn't want to include. Still, you manged to get some random thing in the bottom of the frame and it's distracting. It also bugs me that the horizon is sloppy downward so it looks tilted. It looks badly post processed, would you mind posting an unedited version?

Thank you yet again I appreciate any kind of feedback.

Day 36 took quite some time thank you I really liked that one as well!

Day 37 actually is just a random snapshot it was the best I had from that day though.

Day 38 I'd have to disagree, just my opinion here, I just really loved how it looked to be honest.

Day 39 no arguments on that one, let me go fetch the unedited one!


Day 39 no edits.

Maybe I was a little to harsh on that photo. It just doesn't create much of an impact for me because it's overdone. Don't take me wrong, there's nothing wrong with doing things that have been done before. Do that all you want, but when you sharing them be careful because people usually like to see more original pictures.

Day 39 unedited looks a little better. It still looks like your white balance is a tad bit blue. Do you have a program to make small adjustments to your pictures? Even if you're shooting in JPEG instead of RAW, you probably should so you can correct small white balance and exposure issues.
Aperture should probably be more closed. I don't know any reason that a big aperture is beneficial for a daytime sky picture, and your lens will actually be a lot sharper at something like f/8.

I know I just critiqued you for editing your day 39, but I think it could benefit from a little bit of tone curve adjustment to help bring out the contrast in the clouds. Nothing major of course, just enough to fix some of the blown highlights and make it pop a bit more. Since you appear to be shooting in JPEG (as far as I can tell from the EXIF), you may not be ready to mess with the technical things I just mentioned. If you don't really understand what I meant when I mentioned editing, don't worry about it and just keep focusing on composition.

and fix that page stretch
