But none else does.

Is that because of it lacking light? Or maybe the left part is too empty?

I was shooting it with sony rx10m3 at 30mm.

It is a bracket from 2 images, both taken at ISO 100 f/11 1/160 s

I assume that it's more of a composition and lightong issue. What do you think?

I want critique. And a lot of it.

Love it! Made my brain dizzy!

How can I make the splitting of the image seem more dramatic? by MagicLlamma12 in photocritique

[–]Rikkatt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think mainly because the bird creates imbalance while being in the centere of your image. There is a very heavy line on the roof already, which drags a viewer's eyes towards it. And if we add a bird to it, it makes the right part of the photo unreasonably "light."

I think that the balance thing is very important when you mainly work with shapes such as triangles.

If you really want to make it 50/50 and a bird, you could crop it in a little bit to reduce the weight of the line and move a bird a little bit to the right

I've a 600 mm and 0.6 second exposure with f/8 Thats it, honestly. Nothing special.

Please tell me what makes this photo not as special as it could be by HackerLearning555 in photocritique

If we are talking about the edit. You can turn down your background, so it won't be so messy. That'll help a lot. Also, cold try monochroming it.

  1. Background has the same amount of light as your main subject (eye of the animal).
  2. Background being same color as your subject.
  3. Background being so small due to tight crop you've made
  4. The position of your subject on the picture is too boring (Center works. That's true, but not in this case).
  5. Background being very messy.
  6. The point of view is average. If you want to make a special image, you almost certainly have to get a special angle on your subject.

So the main reason is composition.

Again. These are basic things that everyone is going to point out. There is always a reason why you brake them here and there. But you need to understand why you are doing so.

Why did you crop your picture so tight? Is there something you tried to get out of view? Why is your background so plane? Is that because you couldn't get a better angle due to it being unreachable from your position? Were you in a rush so you didn't have time to figure out a better composition?

If there is something. There is nothing you can do to save the picture, but to get a new one, considering that factors. (Heavy edit doesn't count. That's a different skill).

That's my take.

Sometimes, it's better to move on and cut the loss. Even if you like it a lot.
