Cool place, but don't really like the composition. There looks to be a really cool arch in the back. The foreground has some interesting things but I think there's too much dead space both in the foreground and the sky. Seems a little over-exposed and washed out. Perhaps the shadows pushed a little too much. Is the red earth actually the way it is here or was it more of an orange color? Not a bad photo by any means. 7/10

this just didn't work for me. Perhaps had the background been more blurred, or the people lightly lit with a low flash...whatever, it just lacks something.


This is a shot of the 'Super' moon this month. done with a 6D @ 25000 ISO. Colors are natural, and minimal sharpening done in post. Focal Length 400mm
Exposure 1/400 F Number f/16 The settings were chosen to avoid blowing out the moon.

Cool shot but I don't think its done at a professional level, too many things wrong with it. Namely the high ISO, weird crop, the tree that's too close to the moon and overexposed sky. Also I am not sure why you would use such a high f#, do you need deep DEF in here? Using lower f-stop to reduce ISO would have made the picture cleaner.
Still, a cool shot you had in mind I can definitely see. I just thing it could be better executed technically.

I would give it a 8.5/10 if it was technically well done.

6.5/10 as it is now.

Nothing special about this one, just a cool looking fish from aquarium I went to this weekend.

Its difficult to get a good shoot in an aquarium I know Ive had my issues. I like the shot nice and crisp cant really say anything negative just wish the crop wasnt so tight and the back of the fish was more in focus but the composition is decent. 7/10

Excellent shot. Love the lighting, depth of field and texture. Works really well. 8/10

I forgot to add why I chose those settings. It was to expressly cause a high ISO (without blowing out the moon). I was testing the 6D's low level performance. Your critique is valid lacking that info though.

I love it, but it's more like art work than a photo (or even from a photo? Unless it's a toy?). 10/10 for effort though.

Here's my effort. Could do with a bit more PP but i'll be interested in hearing from the person below.

Really like the low perspective on this shot. The bubble canopy is always cool to me and I am a bit of a flight junky. I wish my dad was still around so we could go flying in his plane. With that out of the way, I would go with a 7/10. While interesting to someone like me with an affinity for planes, it is cool. I am not so sure others would find it as interesting.

Shot at Sea World in San Diego. If I were to reprocess it, I would get rid of some of the bits in the water that are pretty easy to do. I just haven't taken the time to go back and actually do it.

She kinda looks like she has a some facial hair on her chin maybe due to the shallow DOF. The fuzzies which I'm sure are normal look a little exaggerated due to the bokeh possibly. Her chin is distracting to me for this reason. I think it's the angle... I like the ultra thin DOF, but not at this angle I guess. Could be just me

Super cute little man cant say anything negative. I am a big fan of this crop and love the b&w post 8/10

Trying something different.

Different and interesting indeed.
I am no expert for car photography but I like the picture overall.
The only thing is I think if the car was another/darker color the picture would be better.
7.3/10
