      Thanks @lunac73 . I will try calibrating it. But I still want a better lens. this kit lens is cheap and I am needing something more. Specially with shutter and sharpness.

              first thing that caught my eye was the noise. the clouds have it a lot.

                The women foot off. Shutter speed is the reason her hair is blurry a little. The picture is crooked. Her face is slightly over exposed. Like @blacksilver mentioned, you are not balanced in this shot. Instead of asking someone to move, I would have moved to where they were balanced. I would bring the exposure down in post processing (or take a faster shutter speed to make her hair not blury. like 1/250).

                  What is your settings? and you need to cut out the haze. bring the exposure down some in post editing. your apeture looks low. and what kind of lens are you using?

                    I mean to say 11MM in that globe picture. I took it with my Tokina ultra wide lens.

                      DSC_5465.jpg by Jonathan on Light Stalking

                      ISO 100
                      50MM
                      F 10
                      Bulb (was probably a good 30 seconds).

                      So how can I approve the picture on this one?

                      I spun around in a 360. and now learned to do just a 180. which I think would help eliminate so many lines. but yet again when I brought the exposure up, the noise came with it.

                          @west Thank you. I like the stuff on the left because that is his toy bag…….. but since it is a distraction to you, then I need to crop it. because when people look at the picture they will not know as well.

                            Not sure where the sun was at. but if the sun was at left and right, then you should use a NR filter. also you need to set your white balance. and of course shoot in RAW.

                              Level the picture and bring the exposure down

                                I love doing night pictures so I can have long exposures as well. Only thing here is the “yellow”. is that what you were going after?

                                    The left side, I think should be cropped. The trickling part.

                                      How much were you zoomed in?

                                      what was your ISO?

                                      did you have this on a tri-pod? because it looks like the rocks on the right are shaky. Once you go into 1/120 or lower, use a tripod.

                                        1. agree with @karamen . I would like it when we click on a picture for it to go bigger.

                                        2. what about adding a way to add a link to your personal website, flickr, etc? I think that would be cool just so we do not have to worry about deleting pictures we have here to upload new ones.

                                        3. sometimes I see that my name was used in a comment but I never got a notification about it. maybe we can make it easier on people to just add @”name” instead of having to tag them.
                                        – and what if you could insert a “reply” to button. that way we do not have to do all the @sign. and people know we are talking to them directly.

                                        4. as discussed before. I would like a search option. specially for threads.

                                        5. I still like to have the “like” button. lol. it’s just I get worried someone will think all I do is come down on them and never like anything. I know there is the view #’s but that doesn’t mean someone liked it, that could mean they saw it and thought, “no help on helping this guy out”.

                                        6. Also thanks for all you do and getting this site together.

                                          Great work.

                                          the second to last picture in your first comment is my favorite. I forget what that center is called but with the red on it, I love it.

                                            Now I am wondering if that was his intent or not @nikon-nut . If that is the intent I think I would bring the highlights down still.

                                            if it is not then I would bring the highlights and exposure down. and bring the exposure down a lot in the background.
                                            Also for future you should look into a ND filter. That will help you bring out the sky and help with the background.
