Critique me!

I just thought this was kind of a funny picture. Comments? :)

monday, oh monday.

This weekend I was prepared to do my s-curves project, late I know, but better than nothing. I shot my pictures successfully. I went to edit them, but tragedy struck. I couldn't find liquify in photoshop 6!!! I didn't think it existed until Lawlz showed me where it was hidden this morning. Today, I have to add smoke in some of my photos, then I'll be done!

 This is from my second self guided project. I really liked the idea of combining two photos together to make something unique. Opinions?

update

I really am looking forward to doing this s-curves project in our photography class. Unfortunately, my busy weekend consisting of work and my other art class's charcoal project left me with only ideas for this project. I know I want to use both human s-curves and smoke. My friend Jake already let me photography him and his hookah, but that is not very original, Joey already used that for one of his other projects. Early this week I hope to photograph other s-curves.

I found this one from last year's hand project. This was my favorite assignment we had last year, and possibly ever. I like how I used both warm and cool colors. Obviously it's not very realistic, it's not supposed to be. What do you think?

I usually don't like editing my pictures black and white, but I am completely in love with this one. I think it's because of the whited-out sky against the black road.

Critique Me :]

I was actually really nervous to photograph this guy, he looked angry when he saw my camera. I took one when he wasn't looking and ran off. Luckily I accomplished the photo I wanted in such a rush!

Third

I visited Columbia College this weekend. While sitting in the photography class presentation, the professor was playing a slide show of his students' work. I was inspired by them and walked away with new creative ideas for my photos. It was also a beautiful day in Chicago, so afterwards I wandered around and took a few shots. Most of my class projects consist of pictures from the city. It's easier to get ideas in an area full of life.

Second

I didn’t even touch my camera this weekend. I was, however, around people taking pictures at a Halloween show that my friend’s band was playing at. Seeing these people photographing bands made me realize how much more exciting taking those pictures were, rather than the typical nature photos our class seems to run to whenever we are assigned a project. I have been doing that very same thing for over a year now, and to be completely honest I am bored with it. I just feel like the nature pictures we take are the same thing for everyone, just with different plants and objects in the picture. Taking pictures of bands is a new thing for me and very exciting overall. It’s more in the moment and spontaneous than what I’m used to. If I was to go into photography as my career, I think I would want to photograph at concerts. 

Critique Me :D

"Bee"

The idea for this picture came from the bee rock that I found on the front porch. I thought I'd bring some stupid humor into my picture (it's not a real bee on the flower, get it!?) Regardless of the fact that it's not funny at all, I am very happy with the way I edited this.

First

I don't think I know enough about digital imaging to have my own personal "style" yet, but there are a couple ways I like to edit my pictures. I absolutely love color. For me, it's a harder concept than black and white, but if done correctly it's well worth the extra time. The majority of my black and white photos I add color to. For example, I'll add a colored tint to it, or I'll make a certain part of the photo pop out with color. I also like having a definite focal point. The first thing you see in my picture is what I intended for you to see first.
