Watching Them Pass

ISO 100 24 mm 0 ev f 7.1 1/100 sec

I forgot that I had the wide-angle lens on, I'm wondering if I was able to salvage a poorly taken picture.

I took a photo of this person walking into this beam of light, but I feel like it could be improved. It feels simultaneously rich and dull in terms of color. Any tips or feedback would be immensely appreciated.

Looking for criticism on this color grade

I took some photos during sunrise the other day and looking for any criticism on the color grade. I'm still trying to find my style. Any feedback is appreciated. Camera settings: 50mm 1.8, 1/1000, f2 iso 100

Too busy of a photo?

I thought the road construction, tight buildings and pedestrians might make it a cool photo showing how busy this street was, but there’s something off about the photo to me. I don’t get any satisfaction from looking at it and I’m not sure why.

Aurora over Lake Ontario

I was lucky enough to get out a couple of different nights to catch the Aurora (between the clouds of course). I’ve been a hobbyist for quite awhile and my goal is to eventually make something out of it. I’m most passionate about landscape and wildlife with a smidge of Astro. I know that my work would need to stand out and be nothing short of amazing in order to generate any type of real interest over any other rinse and repeat “shop” out there. I take photos and process them in a way that’s pleasing to me but it’s important that I know where it stands amongst my peers. This photo I truly enjoyed finding a composition for and even more so editing. I would appreciate critical input on all the important aspects of a good photo from composition to edit.

  • Nikon D750
  • Nikon 14-24mm f2.8
  • ISO 3200, 8s, f2.8, -0.7ev, 14mm
  • LR edit - shadows, contrast, highlights, radial gradients, localized saturations and contrast, LR denoise and global vibrance.
