Samuel Leathers replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion Photographing fog over a pond in the group Photo Criticism"I like that black and white one. I can hardly believe it's the same photo!
Sam"
Ed Harp replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion Photographing fog over a pond in the group Photo Criticism"Perhaps being more selective over what elements in the frame you want to draw the eye to. I agree it's rather soft and tilted, if you don't mind I see something here:

Samuel Leathers replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion silhouette of the sun in the group Photo Criticism"okay, so pretty much an ND filter. I've been meaning to get one of those."
Mike Hiler replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion silhouette of the sun in the group Photo Criticism"You can find several via a simple Google search (I searched for "sun filter photo").
Here are a couple of solutions, none of which I have tried so I can't attest to their safeness nor…"
Samuel Leathers replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion silhouette of the sun in the group Photo Criticism"Thanks Mike,
What filters would you use to get crisp borders around the sun? Also, thanks for the tip of hiding the sun partially behind some leaves. I'll try that next time.

Mike Hiler replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion Photographing fog over a pond in the group Photo Criticism"I would like to see a bit more exposure to the entire scene. I'd also like a lower angle so the tops of the trees on either side are in the frame.I'm sure the tilt is due to the improvised camera support.
One thing I'd suggest for the…"
Mike Hiler replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion silhouette of the sun in the group Photo Criticism"Depends on what you would consider "sharper." When the sun is in the frame, it is going to be washed out. You'd need special filters in order to get crisp borders of the sun.

Samuel Leathers replied to Karen's discussion rain on a rose in the group Photo Criticism"Zoomed out, this photo looks nice, although a little busy, I think I would have zoomed in on one or two rain drops on the flower. However; when I view the image at 100%, the whole image looks rather fuzzy. Did you use a tripod? Are you using manual…"
Debra Bratrsovsky replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion Photographing fog over a pond in the group Photo Criticism"Hello,
I really like the mood of your photo. The pretty yellow in the front of the frame is a great touch.
The first thing that I notice is that the image is not straight. It is tipped to the right a bit. Also there does not seem to be a focal…"
Mike Lamb replied to Samuel Leathers's discussion Photographing fog over a pond in the group Photo Criticism"Color, light, water reflection, the ghostly tree in background are all great but nothing is in focus. That hurts."

G-Ronn Mendoza replied to G-Ronn Mendoza's discussion Nikkor lens: AF-S 55-200mm f4-5.6G IF-ED DX VR vs AF-S 55-300mm f4.5-5.6G ED DX VR"Hi Guys,
Is it safe to say that AF-S 55-200mm f4-5.6G IF-ED DX VR enough for events such as weddings, birthdays and portraiture? There are reviews that the 55-300mm has problem in focusing at 300mm focal length."
Lalit Talwar commented on Eric's group Landscapes"Sorry to hear that. I hope to go to Himalayas in October will keep you posted."
