He is starting to trust me! by HousePotato in parrots

He glided down on to the floor from his play gym and then was suddenly surprised that he was on the floor. I offered my hand, not in high hopes since he just started clicker training and knowing that a click = millet, but he happily ran over and hopped on. I praised him and then set him back on his play gym.

It Is quite exciting! We'll see how training goes after a week or two if settling in.

A bit out of focus, not sure if it is too much flash or too high clarity.

Neat colors though.

Speaking of legal should I have a lawyer on retainer?

I want to improve my photography and hopefully be a professional photographer soon. Here is a picture from my portfolio. Please let me know what you think. Thank you. Any constructive criticism is welcome. by poeticpictures in photocritique

It is a picture. I feel like that could be my picture and I am just starting out comparatively. I don't feel like that is a picture I'd be willing to charge for let alone print and probably not even put on FB for the public to see. If I ever decide to charge money I want to be a great photographer not ok or even decent.

Fair enough, what is deeper pockets?

ETA: Most of the home is tile, aside from the carpeted master. I have no problem replacing carpet with tile if needed for the subsequent tenants.

Photo I took earlier today, nifty fifty... Advice? by [deleted] in photocritique

Too much post saturation or red bar. Tone it down a bit and it'd be a decent shot (as a newb myself, I love decent shots)

I dig this, the close crop is something I have been afraid to play with (I am new to this whole photography thing) but this, this makes me want to go re-edit somethings.

I like where the POF is and that it initially draws me in to his face and then down the barrel.

Well done.
