Honest Feedback Requested

[frozentyme]

I am looking for some feedback on the images. All images shot with Canon 30D.

Appreciated,


ISO500/F6.7 1/2000 @ Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport


iso 100; f/4; 1/250 @ Dallas Zoo


iso 400, f/5.6 ;1/60th

#1 and 2 are fine - #3 has too many distractions in it.

#1- My preference would be to shoot the aircraft coming at me and leave space in the image for it keep coming, if that makes sense.

#2- Background is way too busy. Also- think about how things look in the distance vs close up. While it's not always the case, brighter gives the feeling of closer. Darker gives the feeling of farther away. In this image the background is brighter than the foreground. It's easily fixed with fill flash or some a few quick Photoshop tweaks.

Thank you for your feedback! I am always trying to make the next shot, my best shot!!

Anthony, if you ever want a 737 close enough to touch* hit me up when the winds are blowing out of the South.
*that's Texan for "they come in pretty close"

Hey Hanky, I am interested. I see 737 often at Love Field. (1.5 miles from my job) Usually, the are landing from the north.

The airport seems like a nice image, missing a decent sky. I also prefer the airplanes coming towards me rather than going away. But i'm no expert in airport shots.

The background is way too busy with the building and the branches, at least for my taste.

What you have here is an out of focus snapshot of a nice child. You must find a way to focus better, it's a pity to waste that smile.

Ahh, the gigs up you busted me. I usually go to the sw corner of the lake by the water house there is a little parking spot. Then one can walk the banks and get some good stuff. I'm thinking with a 70 mm you need all the close you can get hehe.
