Some pics from a 2nd shooter job I did last weekend. I'm not sure how many of you started out doing 2 versions of every edited pic (safe vs. personal pp preference) but I'm still there and still trying to find the middle ground, so C&C on this aspect would be appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time, this site is such a resource to people like myself.
Just switched to my other computer and realized that I need to re-calibrate my laptop. #2 is more orange than I thought, #4 vignette has a weird pinkish hue, and most are a little darker than I thought. Sorry!!!
I really like the first set, although I agree that #2 is a bit yellow. Nice work!
In the second set, the first like too slow of a shutter. My attitude is either get motion blur or keep it sharp, but you seem to have straddled the line and it just looks blurry without conveying motion. In the third, I don't see why a rusty girder is so important that it needs to be in focus at the expense of the scene behind. If you're going to throw the people OOF, IMO the focus point needs to maintain a thematic balance to the image. Even if its not a person or item of importance, I don't see the rusty girder carrying any major thematic or compositional relevance.
Nice third set. Watch the amputations (IE 2, but not a deal-breaker here).
Love the third set except for the last. Not sure about the color choices in post, don't like the hacked-off ankles.
