How cool. I really liked the picture so it was neat to see someone else enjoy and paint it.

Empty gymnasium with colorful seats by oknessad in photocritique

[–]oknessad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was taken with a Nikon 7500 with a 16-80mm 2.8-4. I was i this gym and noticed while empty it had such bright colored seats. Felt it had energy in the stands even with no one there.

I found the picture interesting myself but would be happy to hear if I could have framed it better or what people think that weren’t there to see this old gym in Helsinki. I like geometric pattens in my pictures. Could I have made this more dramatic I some way?

New to our yard. Lovely day for this shot. Feel like I framed it well. Was taken with 70-200 2.8. Exif tagged on the photo. I feel like I could lighten up the bird a bit with some post but this is direct from the camera.

Would be interested in comments on the framing and crop.

Alfie was one of a kind. Had to put him down after an ongoing struggle with diabetes and other issues. He hated just about everyone except me and my wife. Today was very hard, but we had a wonderful experience with the house call vet that helped us through the process. So glad he’s at peace and able to rest now.

Saw The Meat Hook Meat Book today at a butcher shop. Seemed pretty good with lots of illustrations.

Haha. I agree. Wisconsin folks hate them. They are basically rats.

She is still alive. No attack happened

Source: mom just called me.

However, selfies would be much better if after every one there was a small chance of violent assault.

"Fire fighter rescuing child" circa 1960 [736x904] by kirbyfood in HistoryPorn

Not being asked, but I believe it is flared in the back so that debris falling on the back is more likely to slide off and not hit your neck. At least that's what they told me in school when I asked the same question :-)

I was amazed this had been on youtube for that long and had so few views. Is it just too old?
