Old sunset photos

[Gaba-gal]

Ok, so in the beginning when I got my camera, I've been randomly clicking away, but use to deleted most of the stuff cause I always thought they look terrible. I did keep a few, but never post processed it. Now I have decided that I need to tackle those and see what I can get.
These are two of those I really like.

These two were taken at the same Bay, just different days and angles.

Nothing wrong with these two gaba, I especially like the first one but both capture the relaxing atmosphere at the end of another day, good work.
Perhaps you should keep more of your work

These two are great shots.

Thanks Beachcomber and Dan,

The penny has dropped a while ago that my photo's is OK. I believe DPS had a lot to do with it. It makes a lot of difference when you can share your photos and get feedback on them, even if you dont get feedback the sharing alone makes a huge difference.

In the beginning I didnt share, and were the only one seeing and giving feedback on my own work. I were concentrating too hard on technical aspects, rather enjoying them for what they are. Thinking back, I can clearly recall more than one that I've deleted that I know now would have made outstanding photos.

The best advise I can give any new photographer now is.. share, share, share, even if it is just with your family and friends.

Totaly agree Gaba its similar to cooking if you are cooking for one you tend not to bother too much about the outcome however if you have people coming round you tend to try more and hope for some positive comment but even if it isn't positive you can take positives from negatives as long as they are honest comments
Love the pastel colours in the first shot !

I like them too Gaba Gal. Very peaceful sunsets and great idea to include the small boats. Very nice work. Sharing is a great way to boost your confidence, and I am so glad you shared these two.

Gaba, those are gorgeous seascapes and I am looking forward to see more of your photos, so start sharing them haha It really feels nice to share and when others appreciate your work. Btw, I like the color tone of the first photo and I also like the perspective of the 2nd. Those are two calm pictures. Great work!

Thanks Blackdog, Jake and Paul - all comments are much appreciated.

Wonderful shots. If these are the normally deleted shots how good must the keepers be.
