Snow...

[SamB]

Hey, so there was lots of snow today and I got pictures from it, so here they are.

I could not attach all of them so you can find these and the rest here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/samuelpfbridgeman/sets/72157629184282229/). Please check them out and comment saying how i can improve them. Thank you :)

Some really cool shots, man. I like your composition - it's strong.

I like them :) good job!

A few random points:

Often with snow it's incredibly striking when the photo contains the clean white snow and a bright, vibrant color like the last few photos, which were really beautiful. The ones that were black and white were pretty, but didn't have the same effect the ones with a splash of color did.

Your portraits are excellent at conveying emotion; I could feel what those people must have been feeling, but some could be sharper. They are a little blurry. Just something to keep in mind next time.

Some scenes are just not that pretty, or powerful, and you need to play with angles to real get a good feel off of it, which is something I'd recommend for the third photo. By itself, the snow and (what I assume is) weeds are not particularly interesting, so you need capture it from a different angle to put some meaning to it. Capturing the scene itself isn't enough as the content of the photo doesn't hold the photo up on its own.

I also checked out the photos you didn't include, and wanted to say that the one with the hand prints on the snow really struck me; the concept is great. Also concerning the cemetery photograph; it's nice, but try and get some closer shots from interesting angles and perhaps a model too next time. There is so much you can do with that at your disposal, like the girl placing a snow heart on the grave etc etc.

Overall though, really great job. Keep it up :).

Thank you :) these sorts of comments are always helpful :) with the one of the grass it was just a generic macro shot, not trying to put a message across or anything but thank you anyway :) I will keep it in mind

They look nice. :]
Only things that I have to say is that on some, the composition to me seemed a little odd... for example, the last one with the red berries, you cut off the bottom leaf and the red berry at the bottom is really close to being cut off. But I do think the colors turned out lovely against the snow. Some also seem to lack a subject or "wow" factor (such as 2-5).

I do feel that your composition is strong on the pictures of people (both these and on your flickr), your first photo, and the one with the tires.

Looking through some of your other work on flickr, I think it looks great. Nice variety. :]

I don't know much about photography, but to me it seems like these are really great :) You definitely have a talent. Keep it up!

[Breakeven]

[Electra Heart]

Awesome, I feel like snow really captures the emotion in any picture and amplifies it. Plus it makes whatever lighting your in look awesome as hell :P

[DarkNick]

These are some really good images!
I really like the photos of your friends and the one with the tires
Keep it up ^_^
