Hi guys! (and ladies)

Before my S2 IS arrives to my home, i went share a pic from the latests captured with my old (well, more like my ex-camera) DSC-S60, few months ago.

Iīm beggining in this world of photography, so, whatever criticism that you can tell me, will be appreciated.

By the way, yes, the pic was taked like a gift for my girlfriend that is lots of milles away from me...

Welcome to potn, praetor.

I like the shot, it's great subject matter. It does look like it could use a very slight counterclockwise twist. Also, changing the perspective with the lens correction in PS, giving it a straight on look, might be interesting.

To me, it is either quite soft or perhaps post-processed in photoshop. Grains, textures, and lines often make great pictures. If it was PPed, I think it would have looked better if the grains and textures were left in. For example, if that were a stone or stuccco wall, the texture of it would have looked great. If it was PPed, post the original. /Dan

Hi Dan

Thanks for your comment. I added a bit of light in PP, but no more postprocessing features were addes, the pic was captured in a small ville near to the capital city of my country, and the houses around the principal park are painted in black and dark maroon always, so, i couldnīt find a house in this sector with stone or stucco wall.

Anyway, iīm just learning more into the professional part and way in this world of DP, because normally i just point and shoot to anything that moves, or that stay in place, hehehe.
