Papito Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 OMG there are a such beautiful places to take photos at your place, Im also amateur, do you have Instagram?, You should see @Elf and @AngryMozquito topics, they are great photographers. In the 2nd photo I can't see what are you trying to show, what is your point of view?, what are you trying to show?

Great artistic pictures! My pictures are taken during a holiday in Finland last summer. The second picture shows my brother standing on the edge of a cliff. The original larger version is clearer I have to agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol Smoke Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Those are good but here is a suggestion. Buy three filters. Pink, yellow, and polaroid. Try taking shots with each one on the same location. You will see how the pink filter adds to overcast days with water in the picture. Yellow will add a brightness to clouds and bring out the green in plants and mountain sides. The polaroid works great with clouds, by bringing out the edges. Just rotate the filter until you get the right amount of contrast. The bridge scene would be better if you got the camera lower and closer. That way it would look higher and longer against the mountains. Keep it up. Next thing to work on is focal length. If your camera allows you to change the focal length, you can look through the lens and see the change in focus. It really adds a dimension to photos by blurring the foreground or background of a shot. Especially close up work. Lets see some more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanDuyvesteijn Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 I really like those pictures, what camera did you use there? A Canon 60D is used with Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. Actually an amazing camera to start with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
