I knwo what you mean there.. Ive got heaps of old shots which at the time I thought were pure awesome.... now i'd almost be embarased to show them online

[NA_Goodness]

Agreed. I look back at my Photobucket and think wtf was I thinking...?

Anyway, nice shots mate. I need to learn to pan like that! The zooming one is a bit strange, but kinda cool in an abstract way!

Must mean we are improving!

Must mean we are improving!

Hope so

[MaTBoY]

I like the zoomy ones!

Sweet shots bnr! I like the shot where you zoomed. Gives a different perspective. I've only tried it once, but it didn't turn out how i expected it too. Always good to try new things man, it gives you a creative edge. So good work!

My image from WTAC on the Advan Wheels website.

Thanks, good work on geting your photo on the advan site

[Bangaz Boy]

Yeah well done on the car shots BNR#@! I also like the zoomed shot (3rd), I've tried it a few times myself and got some interesting results, nothing worth putting up here though. I've done a bit of searching of pics from old monthly photo threads and I notice how much everyone is improving, a lot of shots from you guys are looking very pro these days, awesome to see!

Not to sure if this image works or not:

[GoldZilla]

Maybe bump up the saturation a bit, Sidd? I dunno, it looks a bit flat to me, and the model doesn't stand out enough from the background.

[bnr#@]

I think the background is a bit to distracting, and there isnt enough detail in the darker areas, especialy the shoes

[MaTBoY]

i wrote a whole bunch of junk that didn't make sense so i just decided it was easier to give it a 5min chop to show where i'd head with it.

darken background. lighten her. let her fill more of frame. (3rds). was gonna mess with softening bg but better get back to work ;/

Nice photo sidd. I think a black and white would suit this better, but only about 50% opacity. I'm liking the cross process look except for her right arm. Its so much darker than her left arm, so it makes me wonder if the skin is off, white balance is off etc etc...

Also the pose seems a bit weird.. Like a "meh" look or something. But i still like it for some reason..

Good work

[siddr20]

yea the more i look at it, the more i hate it hahah. Its going in the bin.

Thanks for the feedback everyone Matboy - Thanks for spending a bit of time on editing it. I get what your trying to do.

But will work on another image. This one is in the bin

[NA_Goodness]

Looks good Sidd. Like the others have said, the model seems to "blend in" with the background too much, which doesn't seem to work too well. Were you using external flashes? Might've been able to light her up a bit. Other then that, greT work as always!
