The bridge

Number 2 has so many layers of focus, nice!

 

I like these photos, especially the second one. It is slighly deconstructed, capturing a scene using a few fragmentary elements.

Wood, you have a great eye for photos. I remember being impressed with those sliding rocks, how you captured the lines in the sand. And there are many great ones in your flickr page.

 

It's easy to be too self-critical. Hard-drive space is cheap so I keep all mine, even the duds. Sometimes when you look at them again, you find some good photos there. Trying to resurrect dead photos is also a good way to practice processing, I find.

Also, Ad, your photos are great. I have looked at them at various forums, when I have been trying to decide which vintage lens to get next.

 

Every photographer has a comfort zone. To get better we must take ourselves out of that familiar terrain. I used to be terrified of street shooting, but now I do it without thinking. Not saying it's any good of course.

But then again, we shouldn't tbe afraid to take the shots we love just because we've done them before.

Thanks for the welcome back. Somebody got my goat but that's my fault more than anybody else's.
