Ritz Carlton

Hotel lighting is always challenging to the cameras. Your pictures suffer from bad WB. The most decent WB one is the second last from the first post but suffers from blooming highlights.

It would be good if you number your pictures.

Wow this is a good feedback, I've learnt something new on WB.

if u know anything about composition, i would say this is a good try...
next time try to make sure dont have half cut lights


kinda wasted? got other things that is more interesting?

btw..CompMac is a great teacher to new beginner...
i m still learning from him

Since when I become a teacher?

What you mean by Half Cut Lights?

If you look at the top picture, there are spotlights on the ceiling and one of them has been cut into half. That is the meaning of half cut lights.

By the way, the WB for Ritz Carlton series is good.

ahahaha, i think he means literally Half Cut Lights... look at the 3rd pic of JW MArriot... XD

You mean, when photography, we don't shoot the lights in half? Is there any solid reason?

eyeball, "half-cut lights" was a poor choice of word.

what aba9785 meant was distractions. and / or any other things in the picture that somewhat spoils the rest of the picture.

with the wonder of digital photography, it's good if you can crop your pictures without having distractions. if no choice, just do some photo-editing.

it's not wrong to do it as long as your purpose is correct. in your case, a little care it cropping would do the trick.

play around with Rule of Thirds, later on just breakaway from it if you want.

try to have patterns, or angles along with your object. so on so forth.

I guess you need to ask aba9785 on why he said that. I guess it's just a matter of personal taste.

IMO, the composition of that picture is not good. It is tilted, too much carpet in the frame, the end of the walkway and the lights are overexposed. This kind of shot is not easily handled by a P&S. Furthermore, there's nothing interesting in the frame to capture the attention.

btw i only liked JWM pic #1. the rest needs work.

But i am just trying to emphasize on the carpet's pattern ..

then perhaps you should let the carpet hold much bigger portion of the picture.

Yeap, I have more opportunity to go JWM and will try more !

EDITED : reply wrong thread.

let's analyze the photo, can see that u r playing with repeating patterns (carpet pattern)
now we go check at the top part, seems like got 1 light is cut into half (for me, it kinda distract a bit)

anyway, it is nothing wrong with ur photo.
u see, u click, u happy, job done.
dont need to really worry with words that come from me (a noob who is still learning photography)
