Dread Head posted:I have not been shooting as much as I used to because I feel my images are lacking, the big problem is I don't know what they are lacking... I am hoping posting in here someone will jolt something because right now I don't really know what to change or what I am doing wrong but I feel like something is not there. I would much rather get a crit of someone hating on an image because that is usually much more informative than "nice photo I love the light!" or something like that. I sorta rambled about this in the landscape thread a while ago but I think it might help if you drastically changed your landscape process for a little while. Like use a long telephoto or shoot handheld long exposures or shoot more short/medium distance landscapes or maybe find some human element to incorporate into them. There's not much about the picture you posted to make me pause to look. It's just a rocky sea shore. Almost as if there's no personal touch to it, even if it was technically difficult. There's no vision. Maybe if there was a boat out there and it was processed to make it more odd it would be different? Maybe not though. Experiment for a while. Don't worry about forcing or thinking yourself into a new level of photography. Change it up, take terrible pictures and experiment your way to something else.

They're good. The way the lighting is reminds me of the dioramas you see at science/history museums. Whether they're gimmicky or not I couldn't quite say. I was browsing through Nat Geo's stock photos and I saw one of some primate that reminded me of yours, but less contrast heavy. I don't see wildlife like this often but I don't search for it either. If you're worried about it you can always change your technique in increments instead of scrapping the style.
