Start putting your subject in focus

Start thinking about composition

Start editing your photos

Start reading about photography

Most of these are pretty far away so everything is in focus. You are saying I should edit to defocus some areas?

I mainly compose to remove things, I guess it's why most street photos aren't good. You have a very limited area to move around in. Should I use a zoom lens?

Is it bad to control ev and white balance in camera?

Thanks for your somewhat vague advice, better than nothing at least, cheers!

All out of focus. And most of the rest suffer from heavy motion blur. Open up your aperture or use a higher ISO. More generally I'd say take picture of interesting things. Some of them are quite atmospheric and that's nice, but there are only so many pictures of the side of a run-down building you can look at before it becomes tedious. And low-dof pictures of your cat or some street wiring will never not be tedious.

>>3110301
If possible could you show me some examples with motion blur? I try to keep iso down and keep shutter speed around the same as focal length. I guess my eye isn't caught up because I can't really see it.

Is putting everything in focus that important? I tend to like photos that are smokey and soft and atmospheric. Tbh I feel like it's more technical than artistic, and I'm not a photojourno.

Thanks for info, I will think about it more!

I want a style that is atmospheric and to take photos of normal things.

Deep focus is a stylistic decision, as is shallow focus. The important thing is that the right thing is in focus - several of these your point of focus is slightly behind or in front of your apparent subject, or you have no apparent subject and the focus choice doesn't seem to make any sense.

Also I'm not sure if you just used a really old mouldy tele lens or what but your long shots are soft and bloomy as shit whereas your other ones are relatively sharp and have decent colour.

>>3110467
I feel you with the blur problem, I think what you are seeing is just reflections. The first was taken through a greasy plastic window, the second and third are taken at 1/200th and 1/3200th of a second, from standing of stationary things. So I think it's reflections or from using old glass (fungus, scratches, etc), I can't really tell.

I'm a lot more happy with

I think they're pretty good - none of them individually stand out that much, but in concert they are nice.
Except this one I like a lot:

but it would be much better with some PP
Definitely got an artistic touch, but don't let that distract you from learning the basics

>I'm a lot more interested in emotion and atmosphere than documentary.
That much is obvious, but when everything's out of focus without eliciting any sort of feeling, the point isn't being made. What did you want us to feel? Why aren't we getting that feeling?

Sleepy, nostalgia, like you are passing time?

Mainly I just like this kind of style.

As everything is a meme nowadays, just take photos the way you like them. You will get better over time and I can clearly see what you are trying to do with what you've done so far. Keep at it, I like it.
