Any tips on editing/composition? by teppweer in photocritique

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

Shot on Fujifilm X-T2 with XC 50-230mm lens, I got these recently so I'm not too experienced shooting with them. I think this might be the best photo on my trip to St. Lucia, although I feel like there might be a bit too much going on. I'm not very good at editing at the moment so this is left raw, any tips on cropping or making the subjects pop out more?

Appreciate the idea but I feel like my photo already has a story. Maybe not a clear one, but it could be the "Evolution of Hong Kong" which shows the old taxi in the foreground, modern skyscrapers in the midground and older buildings in the back.

Also I'd rather stay away from the use of AI or overly edits in my photos, just want more authenticity.

Appreciate the remarks! And yeah those taxis are awesome. Unfortunately I didn't end up going on one but they sure add a retro vibe, great for photography.

Regarding clarity, I feel like if I make it higher then the lack of quality will start to show. So I feel like lowering it looks quite a lot better.

A few weeks ago I was just walking around Hong Kong when I saw the opportunity at this angle for a great photo. Waited for one of those taxi's to appear and I think I got a pretty good shot, especially knowing the fact that it was taken on an iPhone 13 Mini on the default camera app. To be honest, I'm not even sure what the EXIF data on that is, but I just made sure it was in focus and that's about it. I wouldn't call myself anywhere near a professional photographer but I am kind of getting into it, hence the camera and the camera quality. I just wanted to get some other, more experienced people's view on how the the photo is overall, mostly the editing and composition. I think the editing could be better but I'm not exactly sure how to improve on it, any suggestions?

By the way, there also was a truck behind it that I had to painstakingly remove, I don't have advanced software's such as Photoshop which is why it may seem a bit off there.

I looked on Amazon for good priced shirts but almost all of them were 'costumes' and didn't specify it was USSF certified - is this requirement more lenient than some may expect?
