Photography

Well, I'm a photographer, and I want to share my work with you. Even if I just joined! I could use some constructive criticism, since I mostly get, "Omg! That's so cool!" But yeah, here are a few pictures for you guys to look at. Hope you like them. (I do not edit my Photo's in anyway whatsoever. All are natural)

(I have yet to figure out how to put a space between the pictures, or how to type after them, so I'm sorry. >_>)

Wow, these look really good.. all i can think of to say is keep up the good work.. I really like the third picture because 1.) I'm a pyro, and 2.) Usually most pictures of fire that i see, the flame is quite distorted, but you seemed to have captured it perfectly. Great work.

You'v e got a good eye for detail, that's for sure, Ive always wanted to get into photography, but Im not very good with my camera, all I can work out how to do is take the bog standard picture, I love scenery and stuff though, so like, I think these are really cool. Hope to see some more soon!

Sorry I can't offer and C&C other than that, but they are realy good xD

Thanks for the comments guys. I'd really like to see some more! I get a lot of satisfaction out of seeing others look at and like my photo's. Here's a few more.

I think your photography is really good. I like how you take really small and insignificant things in nature and focus on the detail in them, it's really beautiful.

I like how the camera focuses on the things really close and it blurs out in the distance because it really emphasises the detail, however I don't like it so much when it does it on the one object, like how the stalk of the leaf is really clear but the rest of it is blurry. Maybe that was your intention of course, but in my opinion I didn't like that effect very much. It still looks good of course, but you did ask for constructive criticism!

Also I like how you don't edit your photos, I feel that photoshopping just devalues the photos which are actually really good.

I see you enjoy macro photography. I see your Nikon lens cap, which model do you have? (I'm a Canon guy ).

As for the photos - the colours seem a bit dull, usually that happens when you use the camera on auto, you might also want to have a fiddle with the brightness settings. Apart from that they look pretty good.

Yeah, that actually wasn't my intention. I was using my older point-and-shoot camera, and the focus was not on. Trust me, that bugs me too. I just enjoy the focused part and then the blur of colors.

Yeah, I've actually recently got my camera for my birthday back in May. I have a Nikon, Coolpix P90. I have a thick user-manual I'm about half-way through and I'm too lazy to actually read any more of it, even though I know I need to. I've also been messing around with some of the settings, because on the wheel-thing, there is a "U1" setting which is your saved settings. I haven't messed around too much, afriad that I'd somehow hurt the camera, but I'm getting more brave. But, yeah I've mostly been using Auto/with the Macro setting on. I'm also, like you said, going to work on the brightness settings, most of my pictures seem either too bright or not bright enough for my tastes.

Overall, thanks for the input! It's very helpful.
