Doing it without any tricks is more fun.Usually I'd stop down more for a shot with this background but decided to fully embrace the weirdness of the situation.[EXIF data available. Click here to show/hide.]Camera-Specific Properties:Image-Specific Properties:
>>4381146This isn't weird. Deer usually stand in this formation so they have a 360 view of approaching predators.
>>4380914I really like this. Got any more?
>>4381175we got ourselves a deer nerd over here
>>4381175I never said it's weird for deer to face opposite directions but they don't "usually stand in this formation" nor are you always in the right position to see them lined up. You're talking out of your ass and you can google "deer" and "white tailed deer" and scroll through pages of images for yourself to see why.They stand pretty much randomly as they graze but tend to face treelines where coyotes are known to come from. If anything they all line up in the same direction when startled, ready to run. They follow the same game trails every day and know the drill.If you can't see what I was going for with the symmetry here (the only reason I took this shot of 2 boring deer on a boring field) that's your problem as a photographer. I don't take issue with you not liking my photograph in the slightest, just the way you make things up trying to pretend you know what you're talking about. It's cringe and gives me secondhand embarrassment.
>>4381175it's a solid shot, at least 10x less boring than average deer photo
>>4381182>i don't care what you think about my photo i just want to tell you how stupid you arebasado
>>4381182>Le symmetry is quirky omgJesus....
>>4381189Your jealousy is showing lmao, it's unique and artistic. Cope and choke.
>>4381191Yes I'm very jealous of a boring snapshit of 2 deer. Now stop samefagging.

>>4381184Cheers.>>4381185I am a sucker for cringe.>>4381189>symmetry>what is op's photo>>4381191One of very few attempts at something a little different.>>4381192>i'm very jealousMore insecure about having no photos for the photo thread, I'd say.>samefaggingI'm glad the poster count is gone, kek. Now you can get even more worked up about your conspiracies than usual.
>>4381195your photo is still shit kek
>>4381146>good uncanny symmetry>centering was a good choice>perfect focus>dof right where it needed to be for the effect>beautiful lighting and texture>perfect exposureYou even have the subject brighter than the sky and the sky isn't just monotone gray or blue. Well done, another Ambush classic. You make this board a better place and I thank you for that sir.
>>4381200Meds holy shit
>>4381200Hey thanks, Bro. Have a natural studio shot.>>4381201>i-it's a conspiracy!
>>4381204This is one of the best birb photos I've seen on this board so well done. You're a natural for finding wildlife and getting great shots, it's admirable. I hear you're mighty handsome too!
>>4381194More like the power of the one you have with you.
>>4381211This, brandfags get the rope.
>>4381176Not any with landscape but how about some flowers editing one with a landscape right now
>>4381238no offense but this is blatant turd polishing now
>>4381176here you go don't got much landscape pictures gonna take some more just to create some more like this
>>4381239none taken some people like some people hate. I just make it for fun. Still exploring my voice in photography.
>>4381241definitely better but i think you'd be happier getting symmetry naturally rather than basic shoop
>>4381244For sure still learning photography only been at it for two years and my first camera I bought happened to be modfied for full specturm photography so learning that aswell was funHeres another one not surreal but more of my workAny tips on how you would achieve symmetry to create a pic like that?
>>4381247Reflections, although they are a bit of a meme. Less so than editing though. Symmetry can just be the balance of shapes within the frame too, it doesn't have to be literal mirror image.
I think you're more into abstract than surrealist, OP.
>>4381254You right abstract is probaly more what my work is considered.
>>4381175>this isn't weirdThen why does the photo look weird?
>>4381263Because it's kinda weird looking.My vote would go to isi's horse-behind-fence shot. At least, I think it was a horse... may have been a moo. Can't remember.

There's nothing particularly surreal about reflection symmetry, dude.You might want to look into what surrealism actually means.
>>4381513we saw you change your comment, dork. cute how you kept the casual attitude despite being anal enough to come back and change what you said
>>4381514It was a grammar change. I don't want to get it wrong when I'm showing you how shit you are at being creative.
>>4381514Both statements were true and pretty much the same thing. Regardless, OP has been made aware: >>4381260
>>4381146I took a similar photograph, but in the foreground there was a moose and under him you could see the 2 deer in that pose further back. Unfortunately taken after sunset with a shitty digishitter from far away, but that would have been an insane photo with proper gear.
>>4381247>>4381250I got just the thing for you anon. I shot this somewhere along the camino in spain earlier this year from a bridge looking back at the village.[EXIF data available.

>RELFECTIONS ARE SURREAL
>>4382287He's already been told, anon. Editing is cringe anyway, including selective color. Surrealist photography shouldn't rely on editing.

>>4382384I hope he gets better soon.
>>4381951This image has 3D pop
>>4382290Most photographers aren't artists their just a techician that knows how to use a tool. >>4381951tryed recreating my above photos style without photoshop( just minor edits in lightroom) still making some with shop cause people slop that shit up on social media. Fyi colors are off cause I was shooting with no filter on a camera for full specturm photography.[EXIF data available.

>>4382290>>4382296>>4382324I agree with you, anons. Any recommendations for photographers with “integrity”? Last year I started shooting only black-and-white JPEGs straight out of camera, and I’m enjoying the hobby more than ever.
>>4385829>shooting only black-and-white JPEGs straight out of cameraWHY?
>>4383204>Most photographers aren't artists their just a techician that knows how to use a tool.that can be said for every artist out there. well except postmodernists who literally throw shit at a wall. other than that all artists are just dudes who are really good at using tools. (yes, I said dudes because there's no serious female artists - females flock to postmodernist art and smear period blood on a wall)
