Hi all
My name is Pete Fleming. I’m from Cork and am currently a postgraduate student in UCC (chemistry).
I’ve been playing around with photography for just over a year now with my focus on surf photography.
I’m looking forward to getting some feedback from the greater photography community. Up to now it has all been from other surf photographers so i’m interested in what yer angles might be. I appreciate it might be a bit off topic for most people but i suppose a photograph is a photograph
Thanks
Pete
Hi Pete. Welcome to the site. I wouldn’t be an experienced surf photographer, or any type of photographer for that matter :lol: but they look good to me. I would be tempted to crop a bit from the right side of #1 as the highlights in the top corner kind of ruin it for me. #2 the colours are great and it’s nicely composed. #3 would be my favourite as the action is nicely captured, even though I find the clouds and shoreline a little distracting. Well done
Very good-
It’s nice to get some pictures in this section-Being there is obviously the most important consideration,
but these don’t look straight out of the camera,
looks like you’ve done a little work on them-They’re maybe a little dark overall,
but that’s a fine tuning thing-
you might get better feedback if you were to post these in the critique forums-Sports maybe?
Middle one in landscape?
It’s surprising how a picture can start a conversation-
Look at other pictures too, and comment on those-
nobody likes a one way conversation,
and articulating your feelings about other pictures can help make you more critical of your own-Good intro, post more, welcome to the site-
Thanks for the comments. I wasn’t particularly looking for critique on these although it is of course welcome. Just threw them up with the post as an introduction with a few examples of shots I’ve taken.
Pete
Welcome Pete.
I hope you post more like the your first set – I really liked them …
Hi Pete,
Welcome to the site.
Some nice images there for your first post and
I look forward to seeing more.I really like #2 with its nice colour and composition.
Good luck.
John.
