Hey all,
I have seen quite a few of these threads lately, and while I have found that it's relatively easy to critique other's work it's more difficult to reflect on your own work. I have shared these with a number of my friends, and while they tell me that I have "the eye", I find it difficult to believe them- they are my friends (they are paid to kiss my butt)
Now, I'm by no means a pro photographer- I'm getting a PhD in physiology, and while it's true that I do image analysis at work, photography is a completely different beast. I've been doing this for about 12 years now, so I really wouldn't consider myself a newb to photography. Nonetheless, I've never really gotten any good criticism about the pictures I've taken- the kind that makes me cringe, and hurts like a kidney punch. So here- tell me about these. I'm only seeking to improve my picture taking process, or, perhaps, get some reassurance that I'm on the right track.
The site I have is something straight out of Aperture, so look at the pictures, not the site itself.
Please, shred these to your liking.
