Comment exchange - the bad stuff

07/25/2007 11:36:18 AM · #1

I'd like to get some more comments (who doesn't?) Only this time I'd like for you to pick a photo in my portfolio that you don't like and tell me why (nicely, of course.) I'll do the same for you! 1-for-1.

I gave you one. I think most people aren't ready to have a photo critiqued so the 1 for 1 may be stopping them. I don't know. It was hard to pick one fo yours, they are all quite good. that could be it too.

I tried to find one, but I commented already on the only photo I didn't like a while ago. I had to force myself to really look and explain why. This is a good idea for developing critiquing skills

I commented on one, but its like 2 years old, so criticism is a little outdated haha.

I would love to comment on one of yours, but most of mine simply suck. I am still having a difficult time finding good material and shots for a specific topic. My mind just doesn't work what way I guess.

I think it's interesting to see why people don't care for something I've done - when I obviously have a least a small liking for it, or it probably wouldn't be in my portfolio. To get someone else's perspective is very helpful.
