At the beach...
Hi All,
Some of you may have seen my post in the PP forum well here are 4 more from my day at the beach with my kids. I really am trying to improve my photography so your honest feedback is appreciated. Image 1 & 2 - I know there is a lot of "space" but this is what I was going for, I do a lot of tight crops so was looking for something different 
Img 3 & 4 - Some of my tight crops 
Looking forward to your comments. Cheers, W00DY Andrew

Hi Woody,
I like #1. I think it would have been better to focus on the hand in #3 #4 looks a little over satuated to me on my work monitor. Hope my thoughts help. Regards Colin
Hi Woody,
I like the use of space in No 1, although for No 2, I would have composed the photo to have the child at the top of the shot. As it is, she is looking directly out of the shot, making the viewer's eye follow, and thus tending to ignore the rest of the shot - my opinion at least. I agree with Colin's comments re Nos 3 & 4 Cheers P Regards, Patrick
Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
Woody - pics 1 and 2 are classic advertising examples of having space for copy and #2 is just superb. I don’t feel as if there is any need to C&C your eye composition - it works. The colours for me work.

Hi Colin, Thanks for your comments. Yeah, I also thought I shoudl have focused on the hand however I really liked the pattern on her jeans, that is why I had that as the focus point (I have heaps of other images of her sandy hands!!!) #4 looks ok on my monitor, I might check it at my work tomorrow. Cheers. Andrew

That's a good point, however I wonder what is in the shot other than Sienna that is of interest? I do agree though, it probably would have been better framed in the top corner. Andrew
