Welcome to Gaia! ::

Your compositions are getting a little better.

But your photos can also use more contrast.

I really like Shadow Stick and Empty Hall. If you're considering advancing your photography, I'd advise signing up for Flickr.

Well, you can get better lighting angles, or you can edit it with Photoshop very easily.

Ah.
Some of them are blurry, but the compositions are nice.
Good contrast.


idk whether to invest in two tripods (preferably portable) or to go thru caffeine withdrawal xD

yay finally i got something right~ (The photographic film pictures are annoying xD the most recent film came out blurry for some reason)


you really don't need a tripod unless you're taking long exposures (ie longer than 1/30 of a second)
also, what kind of camera are you using?

Well, good lighting comes with the timing and angle of the sun. If the sun is too powerful and RIGHT on your subject, you won't get much contrast and your objects will be over exposed.
Sometimes, taking pictures when the sun is lower and not quite so bright, or maybe even overcast will give you good lighting with lots of contrast.
Also, colors can tend to be richer when the sun is lower or behind clouds.

Otherwise you can always use studio lights for additional lighting manipulation.

That might've caused your overexposure.
You would have wanted to wait until the sky was less...bright.
What do you mean by you've only had a week and a half of photography? Are you saying you've been taking a photography class for a week and a half? Are you saying the first time you ever picked up a camera in your life was a week and a half ago?
color=deepskyblue]I don't like some of your angles. But you have the right idea.
