Since school is out, i'm without scanner, and now no digital camera. my little darling was stolen, so you guys just get old stuff i haven't posted yet.

mostly photography and the like. I really enjoy critiques on photos, so have at it.

i dont think thought much of this photo when i took it in November, but i was going through old files and i dunno..it might be interesting.

I sort of like the composition in this one. That little girl playing the guitar was so cool. She's like ten.

i took this at a furniture factory. it was like, the most boring hour of my life.

(edit) There is also this one, that might have some potential..i was thinking of adding some graphics...like arrow or circles to focalize points of interest..but in the end i couldn't decide and i thought i lost this image when the families laptop crashed.

I really love the second and last photographs. I know absolutely nothing about photography, but those two really caught my eye. The room itself is very interesting and the three girls just add to it. And the last one! That is one awesome building. And the little boy in the yellow coat really looks good as well. Very neat.

My favorites are the one of the strange building and the one you took in the furniture factory. Especially the furniture factory one. I think it's ironic that the most interesting picture you took is from the most boring hour of your life. rofl The perspective and textures just draw me into it.

The placement of the little boy and the building worked out very well, too. The direction, the space, everything. His yellow jacket. :3 Maybe you can use Photoshop to tweak it a little. Just experiment, I suppose. heart

I imagine the girl will be in rehab in another ten years.

Just half-kidding.

I really heavily enjoy the furniture factory one.

The one with the peoples and the girl on guitar, to me it has no splash. It is fairly 'whatever'. The first one is very nice, and the last one looks like it has some interesting stuff going on but it needs some kind of ... something.

Just half-kidding.

I think I just watched some Kathy Griffin stand up where she talked about hoz she did some Red Carpet coverage one time and had movie stars give fake Messages of Hope to Dakota Fanning in rehab.

Evidently the best one came from the will and grace guy who was like "Hang in there Dakota, dont go south......South Dakota."

Dr. Valentine: Yeah, i'm aware the last one needs something, i was sort of asking for advice about what.

How could you not be completely excited from a furniture factory!? gonk

Anyway, the second one is my absolute favorite. It reminds me of a picture a photographer friend of mine took. The slight movement of the hands and the absolute pretty light really do it for me. A lot of the digitally constructed images try to emulate this feeling, but they always fail. I really love it, haha.

(The photograph I was talking about.)

The other photographs don't work as well for slight reasons, I think. The last one isn't so visually powerful because the ball-ish thing isn't straight in the photograph, and it sort of competes with the structure you tried to set up in the photo. The third photo has a really nice tie with the rollers (?) in front and the circular objects in the background, but it doesn't seem to "speak" as much as the other ones. Maybe that's just a personal thing though. And the first one I don't especially like, but I can't really say why. I think the composure really doesn't do it for me, its difficult to get lines straight unless you have all sorts of controls like shifting.

yay! I think there's really good work in there though.

it's really interesting that photo you pulled up. I DO see the similarities between his and mine, and geez, it really looks like i meant to emulate the shot XD. but i've never seen that photo before.
