Default Decent Photo of palm trees? I have no idea!




Hello, I'm extremely new to photography, but I am HOOKED on this site! Luv it! This is my first "Share your shot" post...(hope I post it correctly!). I have no idea if this is considered decent photography, but I think it's a bit different. Any comments are welcome.

Welcome to DPS !! I like the overall shot but would say it is way to overexposed to the right and maybe try setting the palms offcentre a bit would love to see this done again nice place by the way where is this >?

The location is Oakland, California...looking westward at almost sundown...bad idea for exposure reasons I guess. Thanks for your comment!

Hi & welcome.
I like this shot as well, but agree that slightly overexposed on the right side, & the trees would be better off centre.
Really looking forward to seeing more from you, this is a great starting point.
