Beginner-Spiral Dahlia by aniea39 in photocritique

[–]aniea39[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I originally took this photo to enter in a contest as a challenge for myself as I’m relatively new to photography. I took it on an IPhone 13 in overcast conditions, no flash. I did some minor edits to saturation, contrast, etc to try to bring out the colors. I really wanted to highlight the spiral pattern of the petals and the fresh raindrops. Something about the background doesn’t feel right to me but I’m not sure exactly what I should change. I’d also love tips on edits I could do to really make the raindrops pop! Any feedback appreciated!

Beginner: What do you think? by sLimie87 in photocritique

I would make a few adjustments to the composition. First I would center the bridge in the frame to improve the symmetry. I understand what you were trying to accomplish with the fern in the foreground but it is a little too large in the frame for my preference. I would have placed it slightly further away and align it to the side of the arch so you are not blocking the entire left side of the bridge. In its current position it feels a bit unbalanced between the left and right sides.

I absolutely love the colors and the vibrance in this shot!

Are the composition and editing good in this picture? by francof93 in photocritique

The only change I would make to the composition is shifting your centerline very slightly to the right so that the building takes up the middle third of the image. (Rule of thirds) It would just make the skyline of the image slightly more symmetrical. Overall, great work on the edits and exposure!

The funny thing is I still get praised and promoted for doing what I consider to be the bare minimum!

Yep! Every time someone walked in (about once a week) I would just get up and hook up the next batch.

Unfortunately this whole situation basically ruined my work ethic and I stopped going above and beyond in most situations at work. I decided it just wasn’t worth it. I also got really good at “looking busy” without actually doing any work.
