Pics I thought were decent from my first try at snapshitting. Let me know what you think sucks, anything that's good, and any tips you might have.

I dont have a problem with you not liking the pictures, but I was hoping for more elaborate criticism than "ugly" and "just bad"
>>2891867
Also, pic 2 was meant to be a bit monochromatic, not everything has to be so saturated imo

The first one has that light at the bottom which is bothering and whatever those steel bars are in the foreground don't make it more interesting, just distracting. The second is a hallway, albeit the best of the three, is lacking in color and especially in good lighting. The last is just weeds and grass. It's painfully boring.

Yeah should've cropped the light out in retrospect. Had trouble making the shot interesting without the sculpture. Still learning, I appreciate the feedback.
1. Yeah the light kills it and there's no real subject. Just port lighting in general.
2. Would be good if it was for a movie shot, but as a picture not really anything noteworthy
3. Plain and dull. What's the subject?
Take some more. Try again.

All that noise is because you're at ISO 800. You should have been at ISO 100.
you're at f/5.0, you should have been over f/10.0 -- that's how you get the streetlights to sparkle and look interesting.
I like the concept of this town street but this composition just looks so gimmicky and stupid with the way you framed it. Aiming through that circle with two bars didn't help it or make it any more interesting, in fact, your pic would have been far less shitty had you not done that. And FFS, the orange landscape light totally ruins it.
If you want to do a really cool twilight street shot, you have to use a tripod and you should take multiple exposures. You need a perfect exposure just for the sunset in the sky. Another exposure for the buildings and ambient lighting. An exposure for the interior lighting in the windows. An exposure for the neon sign against the sky. One for the street lights. Another for the car on the road. Then you take all those different exposures into photoshop as layers and you use masking to composite your final image. It's tedious and a lot of work but it's the only way to control the lighting for the different parts of the shot. You're not going to get a great twilight street shot straight out of the camera.

There's a really cool looking freight train in the background and you totally ignored it by getting down low to photograph somebody's fucking workboots in the corner of a brick wall and a filthy floor. What were you thinking, anon?
>>2891845
cliche and completely out of focus.
Friendly Suggestion: look for interesting subject matter and just photograph it without any stupid gimmicks or try-hard attempts to be artistic. Work on your technique and mastering your camera's controls. Get in 'A' aperture mode and stay under ISO 400. Even better, stay on ISO 100 and don't use the camera's flash. Get a tripod, use your camera's 2 second delay if you don't have a remote shutter release, and learn how to bracket exposures.
