One thing I like about this sub-forum compared to some of the camera forums out there is that it seems nine times out of ten the critics are pixel peeping and have more to say about things like sharpness and white balance than the actual merit of your photo.
You end up on a hard run after technology and gadgetry instead of trying to be a better photog.
I just wish I had as much time to shoot as I do to step in here.

Creepy guy in the mirror.
And another random photo. Very soft and very poor white balance. But I like it...

There is nothing wrong with the white balance. Its the contrast. The image was either shot through something (ie a veil) or the lens was dirty/old/coating was gone.
Either way, that does NOT make for a bad photo. I call it stylized.

^Love the composition! The sky/lighting looks awesome and the car, too.
I am guessing the road is sloped, hence the not level horizon?

synth i shot it at 2.0
135mm 2.0
I think i had the defocuse at 2 and a bit of processing made it washed out a bit more, which is why I failed at processing it more =\

Ok so this is gonna be a stupid question. How do you guys get your pictures to look so saturated/vibrant in the center and go darker towards the outside? Post processing??? For example, the ugly bird pic has that technique applied to it.
