Feel like looking at some work and offering my honest opinions. I'll comment on anything though I consider retouching my weakest category. May 16 21 02:53 pm Link Please do!

To my eye I see an inconsistency, you have a wide range from outstanding to not so good.

Lucky for me I was curious enough to check it out.

Nothing much negative to say about it other than the set with the model on the rocks is a bit blown out (the shot on the left) and some, not all, of the skin tones look a bit to saturated for my taste. But yeah love it for the most part wish your MM showed more of that, screw the old stuff haha. May 16 21 08:56 pm Link It's been a minute since I asked for someone to slap my ego around, lol, so sure, have at it. May 23 21 02:53 pm Link I'll play. Thank you. May 23 21 03:19 pm Link I feel like a Christian walking into the coliseum by asking you lions how I taste. But after some degree of angst, I'll bite. I have two recent shoots posted here and around 5 years worth of portfolio images at the link provided in my profile. The web site has 11 years or so worth, mostly travel photography. I can see significant improvement over the years and especially since I went digital some years back. What I'd value are comments regarding my overall style which will ideally help me to go to the next level in my hobby/passion. I tend to take super nit-picky comments as evidence that overall, my 40+ years of photography experience hasn't been a total waste. And note that I don't haul around tons of gear and that I always shoot available light. This is highly unlikely to ever change. I realize that I am not even in the same league as many here and especially the pros who do this for a living. I'm retired from the computer engineering field so photography is strictly just a fun way to pass the time for me. Still, any productive comments that might help me to avoid continuing any bad habits would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. May 23 21 08:00 pm Link Ok! May 24 21 04:53 am Link Haven't done this in a while, thanks for the thread. May 24 21 06:23 am Link Your main problems right now have more to do with contrast. On your main profile shot I think its pretty cool - the sassy look and the outfit. What is wrong though is that either "you or the background" needs to be darker. Both are real bright instead of just one of them.. On another photo you are wearing purple on a maroon background. Here the "lack of being able to see the subject better" seems more related perhaps to the two colors blending together . I think possible if the model was more separated from the background "distance wise" then possibly you might not need to add more light to the model. I like the sassy facial expression of the image of the gal with the cocktail at the bar - the one that is more of a close up of her. But I would have had her wear her high heel on the foot that does not have one on it for more sexiness . On both versions of the gal at the bar the background is a bit too busy . Maybe select a spot without the wall photos in the background or where the wall photos are a little more spaced apart.. Jan 22 22 09:57 am Link Would love to hear what you see on my profile. Thanks in advance. Jan 28 22 08:19 pm Link Please and Thank you. Feb 21 22 08:47 am Link Hi! New photos! Please comment Apr 06 22 02:59 am Link I'm down for a critique. I haven't had my ego tested for awhile so this should be interesting! Thank you very much in advance. Cheers. Karajane https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/3569944/viewall Jun 02 22 07:38 am Link |
