Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Friends wedding

Postby Hyena on Fri Nov 24, 2006 1:17 pm

I was at a friends wedding on the weekend and tried to roam around taking as many shots as I could without getting in the way of the other photographer and obviously the ceremony. Most I took were quite candid bar the one I've photoshopped which was somewhat posed for.

I like this shot through the trees. After I took this shot the hired photographer came and stood in the same spot and copied :lol:

Image

I also took this shot through another tree/flowers. I think the water looks more brilliant in the first one but I sort of like this one too. Are the leaves too much in the foreground, or do they adequately frame the bride and groom as I intended at the time?


Image


Should have used the flash on this one!

Image

A bit of photoshopping on this one. Seems to be a common effect on wedding photos from others I've seen around the traps. I heavily desaturated it rather than making it black and white. Does it work ok?

Image


And ONE MORE to show the brides emotion.

C&C appreciated

Yeah the bride and groom probably aren't as sharp as they could be. I actually focused on them then moved around in the leaves to get the best 'window' to take the shot. It's not too bad and they probably wouldn't notice it, but I should have probably flicked to manual I guess.
