attempt at capturing a swarm of tiny bugs flying around

What camera did you shoot these with?


 No.692

>>688

Olympus OM-D E-M10. 40-150mm lens. Does it matter? Are they bad or good?


 No.706

>>692

Honestly they are quite boring. I only really like the one where you wrote "maximum background blur". The bokeh on it looks good. Otherwise these arent that great. Most are underexposed without a clear subject. None tell a story, and the first one looks like a tourist shot. Not sure what to tell ya except practice more.


 No.707

>>706

Thanks. I'll try to make the subjects stand out more. I'm curious, what exactly makes the bokeh in >>682 better than >>684? Is it the size of the balls?


 No.708

>>682

Its the juxtaposition of the old wilting leaves with the bokeh shining through that makes it look even just slightly more interesting than the others. Its not a great picture, it just happens to be the most interesting of the pictures you have posted today. Keep shooting buddy and upload more!


 No.710

>>680

I like the composition on these ones better than the others.


 No.719

>>710

I disagree. I think the composition in the canon picture is off. The lines on the fences arent straight.

The beach picture has strong framing for the beach, but there is absolutely no subject. The balance is off and feels right-heavy. Also it is very underexposed.

These two are not strong compositions. No idea why you would say so.


 No.735

>>719

I just liked the placement of the cannon on the first picture and the way the space is filled in the second picture better than the more centered ones that come after. I wouldn't call them great photos or anything, but they stand out to me more than the other ones.


 No.994

>>692

These shots are nothing else but shots you've taken to see how your camera works. Take a look at >>743, an anon who was on a trip to iceland. Used the same camera as you did.


 No.995

>>994

Exactly how I was thinking. These shots are just masterbatory shots learning how his camera works.


 No.1060

>>994

Although his shots are more interesting, they are over exposed.


 No.1061

>>1060

Overexposure can be used for artistic purposes to lighten the mood and create mystique.


 No.1186

>>679

No, you idiot. It's not CANNON, it's CANON.
