Please ignore my n00b photography skills..I'm still trying to better myself at it.
Enjoy!

 

looks like you got a g to shoot.

keep workin' at it. you'll keep getting better and better.

keep in mind you want to shoot with the sun behind you, unless you know how to use the sun as an accessory to your pics. some pics are overexposed.

and work on that watermark of yours.

 

Yes, I played with the exposure speed quite a bit to get different lighting. I know they're still not perfect. I'd rather have them overexposed a bit than underexposed though. That was a n00b thing I tried to do earlier on when I did parking lot shoots at night...tried to darken everything to get rid of the noise, lol...and you can't even see the difference between the tire and the shadow on the ground.

And the watermark thing, I actually picked up a Photoshop magazine a couple months ago that showed step by step on how to do watermark, even have it lightly marked all over the background so someone can not just crop out that part and say it's theirs...but I really like the simple style better. I've played with the fonts, and I really like this one for some reason.

 

the font is fine. it's just that i personally think they look better in a more transparent layer and more toward the corner. where you put your watermark is distracting from the focus of the picture, imo.

hope you don't mind...but i chopped one of your pics.

imo, even adding the border makes a huge difference. i played with a few settings, added the border, and did your sig the way i think it looks good. and keep that in mind...it's jmho. personally, i think it looks better on the bottom corner - where it's less distracting. but they're your pics and do what you like.

 

Very nice start. There are a lot of good resources on here (like Hero) who I plan to bug when I break down and get a DSLR.

 

Thanks for the help, man. How did you edit my original location of the sig? DId you use the clone stamp?

The person who really got me into pictures was a guy by the screen name of CyberZ350 or something along that line. He posted some nice pictures of Z's and G's.

 

yes, clone stamp.

oliver is a phenominal photographer...
