#7 abit over expose, can see it at the water surface

alright thx wildpiew... btw guys, if i am standing in a shade and i'm shooting something out in the sun, what should i do? i know i can move into the sun, but what if i wanna stand where i am? any particular settings i can follow?

Thanks for the credits man

Keep up with the shots!

Yea UWA rocks!ahhahahaI used 2 stay at the north. and also South bentley near Curtin. But most of the time i wasa in North, Duncraig. you know where?

I love Perth compared to Melbourne!ahahaha

Like the 1st pic. How did you approach the bird? It didn't fly away?

logic : which fac were u in? now working where?

femi : it just approached me.. walked nearer and nearer until i shoo'ed it away with my foot XD plenty of them seagulls by the river. lots of green and gray/pink parakeets too, just that my fav spot was taken and i had no where to sit. gonna take some pics of some peacocks soon, there're like 5-7 free roaming peacocks in my uni

lol will look forward to it

btw what lens did you use to take that shot of that seagull?

the EF100 f/2.8 lens. took quite a few shots but discarded all cos it was too plain

OK here some comments and pointers
1: nothing that catch attention. Average
2: Good skyline shot. I would prefer a wide angle lense here with a slow shutter speed to get a cool landscape shot.
3. Good composition here. Just look at the flow of lines. It leads to somewhere. Would prefer it in the dawn oe dusk.
4and 5: same as no. 2. I feel cramped... Help someone give some space. The understanding of space must be there.
6: Nice silloute shot: Try to change it in B&W and see. it really gives the mood.
7: Where is the focal point? I come seem to find it? The leaves or the gal?
8:The horizontal wall in front seems blocking the flow. Crop it up a bit.
9: No comments. Just seeing clear water.
10: Best shot you have here. The horizontal and the verticals are there. The clould support with organics shape. Thumbs up.

One overall advice. You understanding of lights is not very good. Try to play with lights. Photograhy is also about the plays of light. In a studio you can control the lighting. Outside you need to wait for the right time to get the light.

i like#1
btw..i noticed u take ur pics with the horizontal line rite in the middle..
try to lower..rule of a third or rule of two thirds?
what do u guys call it?
forgot already..
hhehehe..

^its the rule of 3rd XD anyway, ckwei, im waiting for your night shots man

went to uni for a photoshoot. wasted 1.5 hours there, and when i came home, realized that the 100 pics i took were gone!!!! i think i changed the lens once or twice while i still had the cam on is that the reason of the lost data? will my camera be spoilt?

awww.... that's really sad man... feel sorry for you...

no that shud not be the problem =/ hmmm, i think there's some problem on the settings in ur cam? or perhaps the CF card ya have has some issues in it?
