Facebook and Instagram are too friendly and I have too many shots for the RPT
Dumping 17 of my most recent shots, mish mash of various genres. Looking for very harsh, but very constructive critique. I want to improve.

Portraits are probably my weakest desu. I'm never 100% sure if I fucked up post processing or not

And lastly a sad doggo. Hope you enjoyed, or hated, whatever really.
Again, very harsh but constructive critique is much appreciated.

t b h OP, these aren't terrible. I have seen far worse, trust me. The editing is a tiny bit bland honestly, and some I wouldn't have bothered posting. The OP image is the best imo.
>>2862824
>>2862829
>>2862843
These are pretty nice, though there just seems to be something missing. Again, more deliberate editing could help, or not.
The rest are just right above snap shit tier.
>>2862831
there's nothing interesting to look at, and the sky's not that impressive
>>2862821
I really like this one but it's a bit heavy on the left side, crop in a bit maybe?
>>2862843
this one is nice too but the composition could've been better
overall very pleasing images to look at bro, you've got a good grasp of composition and definitely know what you're doing. keep it up!
>>2862849
Could you elaborate on deliberate editing? I'm always worried I might go too far with the sliders, what should I be focusing on?
And honestly a lot of my shots lack actual subjects, so that's probably what you noticed that's missing.
>right above snapshit
I've only been shooting for about 4 months so that makes me pretty happy to hear
>>2862850
Thank you for the feedback! I'm curious how I could improve composition with the cemetery shot. Not arguing, I'm sure your right, just wanna know cause I'll probably be going back to the same area at some point.
>>2862857
>Could you elaborate on deliberate editing?
The shots look basically SOOC. Nothing super wrong with shots like that, but the colors are bland, the lighting is flat, the shot has good composition,but the blandness keeps it from popping.
The shots all seem to have pretty mid contrast, upping it in some situations can really help. Try using the HSL sliders to change the colors to be more pleasing, use a slight vignette to isolate a subject. It's little things that direct the eye. Editing is the second most important part to a great photo.
Definitely think about calibrating your screen. I realized after while that a lot of my shots looked very good on my screen, but bland on others. Check your photos on multiple screens. (an iPhone screen is pretty accurate, plus many people view photos on their phone anyway)
>>2862847
dog has green tint
>>2862825
Bottom right bothers me a lot. You're so close to cutting those feet off. Moving the framing just a hair down would've helped me. Other than that it's a very busy photo. Bot always a terrible thing but not much you can do out there with wide angles.
