OK, so you don't agree with the subject matter, that's fine.

You're just going to have to get over the fact that your opinion of what constitutes good photography doesn't align with what you're seeing.

Live with it, and carry on. You're going to continue to see art/work that you don't like the more time you spend in the creative industries.

It's what builds your style of photography/design/art etc.

Haha i swear my cats are on drugs. Either that or they found an abandoned catnip dump.

How about posting something thats no an intimate object or a landscape, Oddball?

Because your sh!t is as boring as gray.

That would hurt if your words had any worth as a photographer :/

Even if my "sh!t is as boring as grey", at least I can go beyond setting the correct exposure and clicking the button when taking a photograph, your work degrades the art industry... And that's all peachy and fine to take photographs for the enjoyment, no one should have to go away and study it just to capture a memory... just don't call yourself a photographer.

And by the way, stop putting your subjects sitting on and facing the edge of the frame, it makes them look trapped in the photograph. You only do that if your subject is drowning or something. I'd tell you to stop putting them in the center too, but I feel we've traveled that road already.

oddball, enough.

You have been using a camera for 1 week, yet claim to be some knowledgable person with multiple years of experience.

Please show us your credentials, or did you donwload a few ebooks and listen to a 3 week course at college and think you are now the bees knees?

Please tell me you're joking, there's so much more to photography than actually taking a photograph. And seriously, stop pinning this entirely on me.

Roaming through Seattle Zoo, they get so damn close.
I have a picture of an Arctic Fox as well, cute bastard without his white robe on.

Seattle has crows like NZ has sheep. Honestly, it's like walking through the set of an Alfred Hitchcock film.

@Bell, holy shit, that's awesome!

Haha, they also have an exhibit of Magpie's.

@Em; phoawrrr, love it.

The quality of them aren't so great. I was either shooting in low light without a tripod (in Winter, Seattle is under nightfall by 4:30pm) or was in an incredibly humid reptile room (which insta-fogged the lens).

Thanks :)

Parnell train depot. Hiked up a hill, down a hill, up a very long hill, down a small hill, in the blazing sun... but it was worth it. Splitting headache on the way back though...

Got an HDRI of a moving train too (kudos to photoshop's remove ghosts rather than myself...) but in the end wasn't sure if I liked it enough. Same with another of my HDRIs.

There was an old run down train with grass growing inside of it. Lot of detail, but neither me or my buddy got any decent ones of it, was hard to get a focus point on any one thing so we ditched the photos. In the end they came out as a mass of detail with no real focus. Was really cool to see though...

Anyway, enough blabbing, need to compensate with a photo.
