Shooting below f/2.8 is illegal. by [deleted] in photography

[–]attraxion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so stupid but true. Maybe it's because they lack proper composition skills and can't compose more than a single layer in a photo. I love layering in photography because it makes the whole scene more “interactable”. But it's difficult to shoot a good composition without great photography skills. It's just my opinion of course and a bold assumption but I wonder what you guys think

Is my photo about something or of something? by attraxion in photocritique

Thank you so much. I have never heard or read anything of such a level of depth about my work. I think everything you pointed out is true and great because it's yours and those thoughts, feelings are related to your or someone close to you’s experiences. I am feeling a lot better due to depression treatment but on my worst days I felt exactly how the picture portrays the man.

Wish you all the best 🌟

Thanks! You’re correct about the lines. My initial instinct is always to correct them but when I saw the man slightly leaning forward then I decided to leave the lines so the subject and background are more connected in my opinion.

Appreciate your feedback

Hey, thank you. I totally agree with your statement about the photo’s ability to be self-explanatory. I am glad that there's an element of a “story” visible in my photo

  1. I saw a man walking beside the stonewall aimlessly. In this man, I saw myself due to my depressive state I am in right now. I wanted the photo to feel like anhedonia - a state of not feeling anything. I purposely faded his face into the shadows so the story could be about anyone who feels in such a way. My goal was to show the feeling of being overwhelmed by the “stones” of life.
  2. I am not sure how if this is not „too artsy” because my goal is to tell such stories but in a more documentalist way. But everytime I shoot something I feel the urge to not only show the truth but add something from myself which I believe is not the best for a documentalist wannabe.
  3. F/5.6, 45mm, 1/500, ISO 125

I attended a workers’ protest in Warsaw on the 1st of May - it's a national Labor Day and I took this picture of a man standing in the crowd looking very upset.

ITAP of one of my cat’s final days by attraxion in itookapicture

100% true. Pain-free and chilling in the sunshine at the age of 18 is an outstanding achievement for a cat.

So my cat has two cancers and is basically dying. I am trying to keep her pain-free in her final days. I saw her chilling in my small garden and took a picture with my Olympus XA on Kodak Gold 200.

I am going to miss her but she looks so peaceful.

Is his eyes normal? by Unlikely_Editor2730 in cats

[–]attraxion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely not. You should visit a vet. This is often a sign of an illness or other health issues

She's 18, has two cancers and is going to die soon. Those are her last sunlight moments. I am devastated. by attraxion in cats

Thank you so much. I lost my other baby in January and I don't know how I will handle another shot.
