up to par?

11 years 7 months ago #252764 by afoto
so this post is mainly for people on this forum who have been following my work, though of course everyone is welcome to comment!

i took this photo the other night, but can't decide if its a good addition to my portfolio?
i really love the colours of the rocks in the foreground, and overall i like the idea of the image, but i'm just not sure if it works.

thoughts? c&c?
thanks!

This is the worst picture of a cat I've ever seen. There isn't even a cat.

I do like the rest of it though.

I'm not a professional either, but grey water doesn't work for me.

I really like the sky and the water that is farther away but don't like the rock in the foreground so in focus. It just doesn't look right.

The grey featureless water splits the frame in 2 and isolates both the great sky and rock in my humble opinion.

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.
