I absolutely agree. I was in a rush that day and was a little annoyed at night looking back through. Do you think its worth cloning out?

only if you can do it very cleanly
Nice! They're relaxing to look at. I like >>3009321 the best. Love me some cloud drama and the patches of all the different colours but the orange in the road might be a bit overcooked - especially in the foreground.
What are you shooting with?
A couple of them have crooked horizons btw:
>>3009332
>>3009334
>>3009321
Nice colors, nice compositions, nice set overall. Is this "nice" feel good enough for you though? Is that what you were aiming for?
>>3009341
fav, i like the clouds and land arrowing to the left, on ya.
marmite > vegemite
>>3009376

get fucked
>>3009321
Good photos, i like them.
1. shit compositions, looks like you were on a walk and happened to have a camera with you.
2. these are iphone tier photos, idk what camera you're using but please buy a new one, banding and muddy edits.
3. white borders are complimentary not compulsory.

>>3009342
Yeah. I dont think its a striking enough shot to even bother with. Maybe if I get bored one night.
>>3009358
Thanks for the comments. The photo itself is probably ovecooked haha. But as it displays on my screen, thats v close to the colours of the soil through that area. I'll keep it in mind for next time tho.
As for crooked horizons; >>3009332 is a plateau that slops off to the left naturally so I think the photo is accurate as its not a true horizon. Again >>3009334 is on the same plateau, but the photo is looking slighly uphill at a very small ridge which slopes off to the right - however, looking at the photo, it does look crooked so I'll straighten it up (but I think it will still have a bit of slope off to the left when straight).
>>3009376
Thanks! I tossed up for a while about whether it had any worth beyond my nostalgia of how beautiful it was IRL that day, so i'm glad someone likes it.
>marmite > vegemite
but I'm not too sure about your taste tbqh
>>3009421
Any tips on how you think I should make them less boring?
>>3009425
>shit compositions, looks like you were on a walk and happened to have a camera with you
How should I compose these shots differently? I spend a bit of time thinking through composition, and for the most part I'm happy with it. But I'm always willing to take on board how other people think I should be composing
>these are iphone tier photos
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>white borders are complimentary not compulsory
I somewhat agree, but I've been using border since 2013 and have no plans on stopping now.
>>3009491
Yeah, they are somewhat dull -b ut that is part of what I'm trying to capture. I havent really succeeded in a lot, but a few I'm happy with

>>3009954
how'd you postprocess this? I like the way you brought out that tree
I also like >>3009953 >>3009341
>>3009321 has a great foreground but the sky is ugly, the clouds look either blown out or overcooked?
a lot of your horizon-only pictures look basically the same, there's not enough interest in them for me. You've bumped up the shaprness a bunch but the light usually isn't great and the colors blend together a little too much. It seems like the dull look is a bit of a crutch for when you can't quite figure out how to compose something that you actually like.
>>3009425

>>3009974
Thanks for the comments. It was mostly the lighting on the day making the lichens bright, up contrast a bit, up exposure a bit.
>It seems like the dull look is a bit of a crutch for when you can't quite figure out how to compose something that you actually like.
I dont really understand this desu. How would you compose these differently as to not be a "dull look" that is a "crutch"?

seems to be your default when you can't come up with a good framing or subject. maybe that's a bit harsh, I don't hate all of them, but many of them are basically the same concept, and they all look kinda lame and snotty next to the pictures that are actually interesting. also like I said before the processing leaves something to be desired, in >>3009334 I'm just noticing that those yellow flowers are all fucked up (but maybe that's just the resize), in >>3009951 the green grass is not quite distinct enough from the yellow for my taste (but maybe that's a matter of composition)
by the way I like the comp of >>3009324 but the foreground is kinda rubbish, maybe it would have been better panned up?
>>3010014
I agree with this. A lot of the images are very samey.
>>3010007
holy mother of FUCKING SHARPENING. i gaurantee if you used absolutely 0 clarity or sharpening here it would look much better.
