Garden Scape

Was trying to get some lines and curves in the PIC.
How is this?



Thanks,

I'm feeling generous so I didn't delete this when I spotted it breaking the ONE post for critique per day rule but moved it over here where it can pick up discussion about composing a landscape shot to make the most of the features.

Hi Kris, although I understand the "Curved lines" concept you were going for, I think the natural lighting let you down. Not only did it leave your shots under exposed, but it left your focus less than crisp. If you have an opportunity to re-shoot these, I would suggest a different time of day. Sometimes that makes all the difference in the world. I also wonder if you used a tripod? If not, this may have contributed to the lack of sharp focus. I hope this was helpful. Thanks for posting.

Hi Wulf,

Sorry was tad little confused. These were to be posted in the SHARE YOUR PICS forum, but last minute I wanted a critique on these two.
Sorry PAL,
Best Regards,

You are spot on, it was natural light and the Cam was handheld. Think the meter measured the sku which was brighter and gave me an underexposed picture.
Thanks for your quote. I think I have to read all the lessons I learnt in DPS over again.
Good Day,
KRIS
