Some Nice Tasty Pictures

[outlawtown]

Was in Glasgow at my Uni introduction this week, and part of a "Lets get Used to Technology" () class we had to go out and take photos of things in Glasgow for a National Geographic style "100 Best Photos" thing. So I went out and started to experiment with the macro lens on my camera, which seeing as its an Olympus FE-190 its not meant to be anything spectacular, however i was pleased with the results

the images are too huge for me to tag but just click the link (they are all between 1 and 4Mb by the way)

Spoiler:

Train TIcket
This was on the train on the way in and i started fannydadgering about with the camera and I got this shot which i like a lot.

Spoiler:

The Eye

This one was an attempt to get a macro shot of my friend Sarah's eye, but its sharpened her hair more, but i still like this photo

Spoiler:

Buchanan Street Floral

This was a flower in Buchanan Street. I wish I'd taken more time to think about which bloom to take a photo of, but I like that this has healthy florwes on the top right, and they deteriorate towards the bottom left where there's a dead flower there.

Spoiler:

Street Shot
My favourite shot. This is the view looking along Buchanan Street towards Buchanan Galleries shopping centre. What I especially like is that all the people in the photograph appear to be walking away from the camera except the woman in the very centre, who is facing it.

so what do we think? comments greatly appreciated

Her names Sarah you say?

I think number 1 could do with a little contrast boost, and maybe a little crop? but altogether a nice picture

Number 2 doesnt really do anything for me, maybe if you got the eye as the focal point, got it a little sharper, it would be much better.

Number 3, i like it a lot, but again a little contrast boost, and a little brightness boost, maybe crop it a little from the top, and a little from the bottom,

Number 4. The best shot, if you would have got more sky, and less pavement. Take a little of the pavement off, with a crop (again) lol, it would look really good. Although it does seem a little crowded



Nice shots, good effort mate.

Sorry if i seemed a little harsh :beer

Nice & tasty = naked females...and eyes don't count.
