Check out my pictures and tell me what you think...

My first time trying real photography. I know pretty much nothing about photography. I know what the settings on the camera do, but that's pretty much it. Here's a link to my flickr page. If you guys could just critique these photos and point me in the right direction to learn more about photography that would be sick. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jewced/

I like the scenery, but you`re trying too hard to be artistic with some of your shots... its kinda cliche.

 

[Hansel.]

You mean, real photography, with real cameras, and real pictures?

balls on your chin and dick in your mouth, media and arts.

 

[MACAQUE]

No. As in taking photographs. Not snapshots.

 

[Hansel.]

you put it out there, i made the joke.

 

[SteezyOhio]

like the shot gun shell ones, and some others

The only picture I sorta like is the first one, the rest are like someone said "trying to be too artistic". everything is sideways and shit. Look at many classic, timeless, amazing pictures, and 99% of them are not sideways, nor are they in macro mode.

I didn't shoot in Macro. But I'm attempting to be too artistic. Got it.

Well you may have not shot in macro mode perhaps, but if this isnt "macro" then I dont know what ishttp://www.flickr.com/photos/jewced/4326235809/

 

[MACAQUE]

I get what you're saying now. I thought by shooting in macro you meant pushing the little flower button.

 

[Dr.NS]

what type of camera do you shoot with

srslyfresh is right

too much crazy angle

see how this is more simple but appealing?

also if you made some simple crops to your stuff it would be much much better

get rid of that foreground blah-ness and those shadows in your landscapes!!

 

[Dr.Dank]

You should put up your best shot of each subject not a bunch of different angles.

I'm shooting with a Nikon D40. And I don't like cropping because it makes the image quality go blah.
