I agree with you. The logo thing was something I should have thought about. I found out in post-production, and I didn’t take it out… As for the bicep thing, I agree it competes with the face, but maybe that’s a good thing for him. Thanks for pointing that out.
He’s chilean, and actually he has that skin tone. (now comparing with him right next to the picture).
Een though, I’m gonna try golden reflectors to see how it affects the complexion, thanks for the advice.True about the arm. I wasn’t using a golden reflector. You say his skin looks a little desaturated? or a little overexposed?
You had an amazing situation for a good landscape. Fluffy clouds, nice day, background (cliff) and foreground (palms). I feel like you could have put a lot more foreground, in shots like these it tends to make the viewer feel like the place is huge, quiet and beautiful. Google some “hiperfocal” photographies, that’s what I’m talking about, sorta.
Despite composition, I think exposure it’s pretty correct, maybe just a little bit overexposed, but nothing you cannot fix in post-production. Also, this photo looks very fit for a good post process. You could get a little bit of saturation to that sky, make it look brighter and inviting, rather than “about to storm”
For these landscape (and overall gorgeous looking big big places like beaches and mountains…) you should try a wider angle, maybe 20mm or lower. Wide angles tend to impress a lot more, and make the place look bigger (and therefore better in most cases)
Good luck 😉I found out about that Adaptive wide angle correction, gonna use it. Thanks 😉
Good suggestion about the spots. This was in Catholic Cementery, Santiago, Chile.
Would you say the horizon isn’t in fact horizontal? I can tell that by looking at the stone details around the bars, but I struggle so much trying to straighten photos like this one.
I tried uploading a bigger one, but it didn’t work for some reason, sorry.
Thanks for the feedback.Thanks for your feedback, I think I’ll apply it next time.
Thanks for the positive critique then! Good to hear your interpretation.
You should definately take more advantage of those complimentary colors, they make the photo pop. As for the glass and liquid, I agree with everyone. I’ve been doing still life for some time, and definately glass and metal are hard to work with.
There are some spots on the glass, you need to make sure the glass is absolutely clean and perfect.
As for the quality of light, I think it’s a little hard for this. Notice those shadows under the cookies/brownies. You mentioned using a mini soft box. Try a larger one (or maybe a difuser, those can be expensive)
And last, refering to the backdrop, it could be seamless, you should lift it a little more from the upper part.
Also, put more food, It can look like those were the leftovers.
Cheers! 😉
