Did you slant this on purpose because of the log? Personally, I think it would look better if the horizon was straightened...but if you did it on purpose...

i know you said no phone pics, but i think with favorable lighting conditions some phone pics can look quite decent. these were taken in yoakum, texas with my iP5.
Wow, I'm takin heat all over for my cell phone comment at the beginning of this thread! Glad you posted those shots as there are great.
Great photos can be taken with cell phones and I've even got some with my terrible quality iphone 4. I simply wanted to try and keep this thread more of an in-depth discussion of photography, it's principles, techniques, as well as critiquing each others work if your open to it.

One thing I never shoot outside of personal is portrait photography. Anyone with tips on how they clean up their portrait shots in photoshop, lightroom or both? Especially with candid shots where there is probably one strong light source like in the 2nd pic.

Although I can't offer any advice pertaining to your comment, me and my girlfriend were just complimenting the shot above. Really cute and the DOF is perfect for his hair. Did you make any adjustments on his eyes? Looks great!
Had to bath the dogs today, snapped a couple pics while I was at it:
Tank looking super depressed. He loves swimming but hates baths?!

One side is a little overexposed due to the location of the lights, but turned out OK. I wish I could have stopped up here to get both dogs in focus but needed a fast-ish shutter speed. In retrospect, I could have bumped the ISO but I havent found the limits of the 6D yet and what I am comfortable shooting ISO-wise. I hate noise.

I actually took color out if you can believe it. That's my friends kid. His eyes are crazy! It really came out in that shot for whatever combo of lighting that was going on.

I've enjoyed reading this thread, you guys have so much talent and skill.
Even though I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing with a camera, my close friend hooked me up with a job this week as one of the assistant photographers for my college. I'm pretty excited, and hope this job can teach me some skill. And plus I'm getting 25% of my tuiton cost back :reddance:
I hope you guys will give me some constructive criticism along the way. The more I learn about this whole photography thing, the quicker I rip apart every photo I've taken that I thought was "decent"

What kind of camera did you shoot these with? Please don't take this wrong, but they're pretty blown out in spots and pretty underexposed in others. Was that what you were going for?

has anyone had issues with lightroom?, im getting an error message when i try to export. ins a "win32 API error 2" message that says i can not export this file because the system can not find its location, i googled it but the only answers i found told me to uninstall the most resent updates. i tried that. but my computer tells me i have no updates installed, so i just simply uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but im not sure if this will fix my issue(s) lightroom gurus help please (this is why i love film -no damn computer to "go crazy" on me...
