It would help if you hosted them on pix.ie or flickr.com or somewhere like that.
You'd get better reviews, if we could see them larger.
What camera/lens are you using?

I have them on flickr but have just learned how to post them big here, hope it works!
I'm just using a normal small digital camera, only gotten into photography recently, have applied for a course for September though so I'll be learning more!

I like this one of the garden I think you posted before.

If you quote this post, you can see how I added your pictures into it.

In the top one of the boat, you have too much concrete in the foreground & you've cropped the top & nose off the boat.

The second one is missing an interesting subject.
I think the third one is a little too cluttered & missing a focal point.

Yeah dades, that one's mine too, thanks!
And thanks, City-Exile, for helping me with putting them up, lol!
Thanks for the comments, too they're helpful:)

bradnailer · 08-03-2008 7:35am

Spent some time in Dunmore in my teens, nice start.
Where's the beach shot taken, is that woodstown ?

cutiegal · 08-03-2008 12:29pm

Well I've applied for Photography studies in the VEC in Waterford, it's just a one year FETAC course, I kinda wanna see if it's what I wanna do!
Yeah the beach is Woodstown! Dunmore's great for taking pics of lol!
Thanks!

There's quite a few Waterford heads on here, you should be alright for advice/meets etc.

Best of luck with the course

cutiegal · 08-03-2008 7:36pm

Great:)
Thanks!

Not bad at all. #2 needs more space around the boat - as somebody else said you've chopped the nose and mast.

Shooting into the sun is always difficult, unless you've got filters to balance the exposure, or can combine several different exposures on the computer. Neither of these is really an option with a digicam.

Yeah, we need another meetup at some stage, accidents with beerfests and Downes notwithstanding

Opinions?
