C&C much appreciated

 

It looks colourful and sharp, but I think the handicapped spot might be giving the wrong impression of the car.

 

yea I'd have to say the same thing - the signage is distracting.

Also - too much foreground in the first shot, for my taste. Would rather see more of the sky.

I've been paying more attention lately to distracting things in pics - didn't really think too much about them before but their existence (or non-existence) can make a big difference in pics.

 

i'll agree with srika about the foreground...too much going on...maybe lower your f-stop a few (if possible) to focus more on the car...

but that looks like one nice ass apartment behind your car...

 

thanks!

those were the exact same comments I got regarding the handicap sign, and now that Ive heard it from almost everyone whose critique means a lot, its starting to bother me too

I also intended to shoot more of the sky but this was a limitation of the range (i was near an edge of the parking area, with thick brush behind me). Ive experimented with a few crops but I think I'll just reshoot it when I have the time. I agree that special care must be taken when looking through the viewfinder - making sure im not only looking but 'seeing'.


thank you for the C&C

 

thanks! at least im getting the same C&C across the board. I had that nagging feeling about it after pp'ing. oh well. it always takes a second opinion to point out the hiccups

your time is much appreciated

Dan Martin - lol Ive heard almost every version of what you just said

 

what about white balance? i love that orange picket fence.

other than what has been said its a good photo.

not so much a fan of the evo x thou. although in white it looks good except them darn taillights.

 

im guessing this is a model home/apartment?

im guessing you're from orange county?

<~ i forgot if you told me before, or if ive met you.

 

yes it is a model home, and yes im from orange county.

maybe we should shoot together sometime. its always nice to learn new things in photography
