hey everyone. i was wondering if i could get some critique on some of these photographs i did.

heres the first one:

I took this picture in a park in frankfurt. maybe you can tell the weather wasnt so good and everything. there was also this flowerthing in the middle that i had to edit out.

next one:

i took this one while i was going jogging. for me it gives me a sort of apocalyptic aura.

and the last one:

this is my newest pic. i took this one on the same day as the flowers. same crappy weather. but i think i kinda got the bad weather effect gone with some photoshop editing.

allrgith thats all i have to show for now. please give me some critique. and please let it be something constructive.

The third one is a little standard, but the first two are good. I had to look at least twice before I saw what the second was, and that's a great picture.

i definatly like the 2nd of all of them. [order= 2,1,3] the light in that photograph is amazing, not totally sure about the abrupt angle. for me the angle would work better if you had done more to hide the obvious picture and made it more abstract. if i had taken it i would have used the angles of the wires to get a level vanishing point. but dont get me wrong i'm really in awe of how well you captured that light. great

The second picture is the best in my opinion, it looks very professional.

As for the first one, it's too bright, and the flower is kind of merged together in places from the high redness.

The third one isn't really a bad picture, but it's uninteresting.

Keep up the good pictures, I'd really like to see more of these!

wow, nice shots. i especially like the first 2. the rose looks like a pic you would see in a magazene of osme sort. and the mood in the second picture is GREAT. the orange sky and the angle really give it a nice aspect as something os simple as wires

Wow, the first picture up there is amazing.

I love the color and the artistic effect to it. Also, you had a nice focus in on the flower. Great work :]

Oooh the second one is very arty-fart isn't it! No, but I mean that in a good way - it looks really cool.

The third shot just looks like a cliche shot of some building that you'd find on a postcard or something.

The first is better, pretty neat... couldn't even tell that the weather was bad!

All right. Me being a fine arts/graphic design/photography student, I learned to go all out on my critiques, so please note that this isn't meant to put you down, but to help you.

Photo #1
While you have done a great job of using complementary colors to the max (red and green), the red might need to be toned down a little bit more as the red is so bright that it almost looks pink. Also, while you have gotten your flowers mostly in focus, while keeping the background blurred when you used the depth of field to your advantage, you need to focus on your center of interest a little bit more as when I looked at this photo in its actual size, the edges around your flowers (stem and otherwise) are still a bit blurry, which subtracts from your photo.

Photo #2
I particularly like this one. You're right, it does give off a kind of apocalyptic aura. While the color is striking, the blurriness of some of the wires can make the viewer a little bit dizzy. I recommend sharpening up the wires that are blurry some (not much mind you, just a little bit, otherwise your picture will get all pixely

).

Photo #3
While this picture does give off something of a quaint and homey feel, it seems a little too vauge and common. The colors just don't blend together well, giving it more of a feel like a snapshot than an art photograph. While I have to admit, the clarity is striking, like the other two, you need to sharpen a few things up some. However, I do like how the designs stood out the most, giving your viewer a center of interest.

Yeah! I agree with the second one being the best of the 3!
At least it tells us something,
it's more human than the others, it makes us think,
there is a concept in it!
It might be great art for some of us! Who knows..

I like it because i can see the work of humankind,
it tells us a story about how we were proud of building new technology,
and eventually we couldn't do anything but depend on our own creation.
Like marionette (puppets with strings)...
Great colours, really like it!

Keep on fiighting!
Great job!

I think the second is the best, the yellow-orange-brown sky, the angle of the photograph almost as if you had staggered back when you saw the light

Photo one expresses a nice feeling of relaxation and shows off the right colors to represent peace and the environments beauty. The two flowers looks very healthy and full of life but at the same time it sets a feeling of lost. When I look at the two flowers I can only think of someone that has passed away, maybe its because of the darkening of the picture indicating it was a cloudy day? But overall, this pictures gives me a sense of relaxation and peacefulness.

Photo two is a very nice shot and angled picture. The dark colors sorta makes me think of a day passing by. It somehow expresses a sense of doomsday is coming type of feeling at first glance. With its dark colors it emphasizes that type of apocalyptic feeling real well. What would have made that picture perfect if there was somehow lightening that was dropped in in the background, but you get what you get and it is a very fine picture.

Photo three is an interesting piece, at first glance it reminds me of travel overseas. Maybe travel in europe, the picture to me gives off a ancient feeling and expresses an elegant atmosphere of the people dining at that restaurant. The structure of the building and its colors makes the picture looks old which is why I see it as giving off a ancient feeling. Nice shot of the restaurant.
