Brad, my suggestion is to never do that again.

[B Rod]

Are you referring to me(Bryan)? If so, .

[M.Burroughs]

Bryan, Brad, both close.


I'm sorry, now I feel like a douche.

I sat and thought about it for a second... couldn't decide, and then thought "b-rod, brod, brad... yeah, brad".

[B Rod]

Haha, its all good. So, weren't a fan of my pro edits? I didn't realize how fubar'd the shadows were until seeing them on a different computer. I have no idea what I'm doing though and thought the colors looked cool.

[B Rod]

No editing, just pictures.

[Pswirley]

I like the picture and I need practice editing, so I took a crack at it.

[B Rod]

Nice. Best part is thats taken from the balcony from my apartment in south San Jose. I'm moving in the next few weeks and am definitely going to miss the view.

[B Rod]

How about this one??

[Pswirley]

Shoot later in the day and with the sun at your back. You did neither in that picture. The shadow gives you away and takes a lot away from the car. Plus you have a lot of blown out highlights. Its distracting.


Think composition first, then start to work on sharpening your pictures and making settings adjustments. I have been shooting for 14 months now and composition is still the hardest part, it will ruin a perfectly exposed and sharp as a tack picture. It can also save a picture that may not have either of the latter.

Cool. Thanks. I mainly got bored and just tried with something I had. There are two reasons why I didn't use the passenger side. Wheels were turned the wrong way and I have a molding missing.

[Pswirley]

Thats when you have to say, damn, I need to turn the car around and make sure the wheels are correct.

Here's a few of my nephew and niece:








BTW, none of these have PP. Straight off the camera.
