Title: Photography stuff
Post by: MikeyMouse on March 30, 2014, 11:49:55 AM: Hey guys, just wondering if anybody who is interested in photography or considers it a hobby/profession could give their opinion on some of my girlfriends work. She's new, doesn't know what sort of photography she'll end up in, but any tips, praise or criticism will help an awful lot to her. Appreciate anybody who is willing to help her out, cheers guys :).

the last photos look exquisite, all she needs to do is to work on colours and photoshooting precision.. she is pretty good at least for me ;) keep it up!

Yup, she is pretty good!

If the quality is important for her then should read about noises on pictures.

If you haven't budget for high-end product don't worry, those equipment that she have should be already enough.

For example: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kirsty_rose/11590838905/# (http://www.flickr.com/photos/kirsty_rose/11590838905/#)
It looks ok for someone who don't know - for me yes. Weird?
But when I look in other perspective I don't like it. I mean near distance.

Let's zoom it!

so in fact is highly visible in dark areas of pictures.

NEXT!
correct it in the photoshop. I will not do this professional, but slightly improve it.

So we can do: http://images.tinypic.pl/i/00514/uscrd0xz8hbe.png (http://images.tinypic.pl/i/00514/uscrd0xz8hbe.png)

Final result:

original resize to 400x348:

Ofc. You can improve your pictures much more than me. Peace!
