You may have done this already somewhere else, but could you post a before and after shot? It might help with opinions regarding the post processing.

I think the post is quite good. You're taking average, sort of meh pictures of animals and turning them into some of the most talked about photos in the dork room. The fact that they look studio lit makes them look fake (who can get a tiger to pose for a studio production?) and I think that's what makes them remarkable. Additionally, when they come in groups or when I consider the many many shots with similar post you've produced over the last year or whatever, I think they all go together really well and that adds to the awesomeness of the whole thing. I've heard it said a half dozen times but all of your shots together in a photo book would be spectacular. e: _MG_0181 by spf3million, on Flickr spf3million fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Jan 27, 2012 |

Completely agree that this looks like an illustration in a children's book. I like this better than the other you posted. I wish there was something else there instead of a dumpster. Really like this photo. The colors and the light work well together to give it a nice pop. I think a flare would have made it just another hipster pic of a bike. Or maybe not, who knows. Visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jersualem (supposedly where Jesus was crucified and was resurrected). _MG_2202-150 by spf3million, on Flickr What's left of the J-man's tomb. _MG_2215-153 by spf3million, on Flickr

Composition works, exposure is spot on, colour looks a bit dulled (I don't know if you did anything in regards to it) but it looks just right for the photos. Really well done. HookShot posted:

Not sure what this is (airplane trails?) but I like it. Not a big fan of the tree tops though.

Awkward Davies posted:Sometimes I want to give critique like "You took a picture of something boring. Why did you do that?". The snow on the bottom right isn't interesting at all. The trees and mysterious light on the bottom left is very interesting. Try re-framing to get more of the mysterious trees and less of the boring snow with a million footprints.

What's going on with that bridge/dam in the background? I want to see more of that. I actually kind of like the 3rd although it seems a little noisy for some reason. It would be worlds better if the sky were more interesting. As it is now, it is just blah gray. When they sky looks like this, I find it best to try to eliminate the sky from the composition altogether. These two are completely baller. Really love how you can see the movement in the falling snow. The 1st could possibly use a little exposure bump since there aren't really any pure whites unlike the 2nd where there are definitely blacks and whites. Druckman posted:

I like the way the shadows fall and the framing provided by the dark and light walls on either side. I prefer the pose in the 1st but like the exposure of the 2nd more. Maybe a vertical would be better though, decisions decisions. e: Primo Itch posted:Maybe somewhere in the middle? I think that bumping up a little bit the exposure in the first one should do the trick. I also like the model pose in it better than the 2nd, where she feels a little bit stiff.

For good star trails you are probably best off with 15 or 30 second exposures continuously. If you are using an intervelometer (which you basically have to for star trails), you'll set the wait time between photos to be the smallest possible, that will minimized the gaps.
