I'm sorry, I just don't get it.

There is way too much fog in the first and third image.

In the second, you didn't finish removing the background before you pasted it over the new background. And then slicing off the poor woman's back and centering her in the photo....


Sorry but I have to agree with hlmichel. The vignetting is very overdone on 1 & 3. I also think 1 is overexposed but hard to be certain with so much and so strong vignetting.

The 2nd, in addition to the very poor extraction, now has a background of giant cala lillies which does nothing in my very inexperienced opinion to help the photo.

As to the last of the group I also have to say I am not fond of the composition although I cannot say why. I really find a femenine foot attractive so that's not the issue. Perhaps it is the angle of the shot? I am quite at a loss to explain to myself what it is that bothers me but I can't put my finger on it.

Sorry if this seems a harsh critique but it is honest. And since I am on the low end of being a novice my opinion matters not one iota anyway.

Thanks for your input, you handled the critique very nicely and that is what truly matters. I may post a couple more as I get through them. I don't have very many as I was not the professional photographer of the day. Nice to hear from you.

That's pretty neat. I have family in the Quincy, Lagrange and Canton area, not Bowling Green but drive by there to see everyone in the other cities! -Sherry

Thank you for giving me your detailed comments, I appreciate the time you put into it and with kindness helped a lot! lol

Yes, it is the bride's day, it was illustrating the getting ready part, maybe I should have shot from a different angle! -Sherry

Use a sheer stocking, support hose and net stockings won't do. If you ever plan to use your camera for "clandestine" work a stocking will keep sunlight from reflecting on your front element with little degradation of the image

Just a little tip...if you hit "quote reply" you can better associate your return message with the original message. You have so many responses posted in a row it's kind of hard to tell who you are responding to with some of them.
