>>4386591and thats it unless i post stuff from my other camera. obviously all sooc
>>4386592You're close. People will disagree with me, but I think you just need to study the fundamentals of composition some more. Shoot only black and white and focus your entire being on composition.
All of your photos are you standing there camera to your face with no consideration why you're taking this photo other than "hmm this could be a good photo". Essentially you should be selling your vision of why it's an interesting photo through framing, lens choice, post processing, visual story telling. A weirdly cropped/framed swan head tells me nothing. Shoot it wide from knee height and let's see what he's looking at? Here's a shitty photo of mine so you don't think I think I'm some wanna be elitist or a no photo. I shoot better photos of people than run down buildings or landscapes.

>>4386600This is a good photo.>how do i even put that into practice?That's for you to figure out. Why did you buy a camera to take photos of things? I would bet money the photo you see in your head is different than what you end up with most of the time. It's your job to figure out how to make your camera replicate what you see in your head.[EXIF data available.

>>4386600B&W photography is all about light, composition, and content. There are no colors to distract you. Focus on those three things and your photography will improve.
>>4386600That's actually pretty good lol
>>4386604>your photography will improve....until you shoot color again, that's why many photographers cannot into photo, they lock themselves in B&W which is a crutch
>>4386606One of the most retarded posts I've come across. Post a couple pics. Please.
>>4386609Sure, you first and in color please
>>4386611You are the one making the obscenely retarded claims. Back them up with a photo, coward.
>>4386613>obscenely retarded claimsWhat's retarded? photographers who focus specifically in light and texture over black & white photography lack the color theory to do punchy color photography, look at street photographers, most of them suck hard at color and use B&W as crutch.Hell, see many gifted newcomers, they have to convert their work into B&W because they still don't know how to color grade satisfactorily. It's not that hard to understand this phenomenon, can't blame them because learning the wheel, the hue ratios and selecting which one is the best for said picture is daunting.>cowardMany will agree with me due to the bad creed the street photogs have done themselves in this board, even if you or me posts good pictures it will only prove we are above the photogs who are too intimidated or ignorant about the next step.
>>4386632>color gradingmeme youtuber "photographer" shit. Like the other anon said. Post photos or stfu. BTW these look like ass
>>4386600pretty good plus nice double dubs. it feels like it's in an awkward limbo of sharpness, where it would feel better either blurrier or more crsip
>>4386672>meme youtuber "photographer" shitSo you never correct anything about color in a photography, aka you are SOOC? then you have nothing to say here nophoto, let that other anon talk.>Implying i am McKinnonGot offended, not going to lie there
>>4386843Calling it color grading is youtuber larping as a DoP shit. It’s called, get this: editing. Also see: people using luma and chroma to refer to noise in stills, despite those referring to video signals
>>4386576Many of your photos aren't bad at all. People post worse things here. What you need, however, is some good editing. SOOC looks like shit usually, but after adjusting some settings, they have potential. Upload some RAWs and I'll show you what can be done within a couple minutes.
>>4386843I do edit color photos. I also posted 2 photos in this thread already about to be 3. I felt posting an example of color grading photography and how awful it is would be effective. Here's a color photo I edited. It's an out of focus cat. I prefer shooting B&W. As the other anon in this thread said OP should be focusing on composition and I suggested using different shooting angles, lenses and post processing. His best photo is the sail boats. Color wouldn't have improved that photo and I find it rarely improves a photo. Unless the color of something is the subject of a photo composition > everything else.[EXIF data available.

Some of these aren't bad, some of them are. Just keep taking photos desu. That's the best way to improve
>>4386865the DoF here feels bizarrely unfortunate. Imagine how small of a difference in distance there was between the left and right eye, and yet look at the difference in focus. Seems like it would be fine had the eyes been in focus.
