In April/May I went to China to my brother’s wedding and took a bunch of photos there.

Since I’ve got a lot of photographs, I was thinking about getting some feedback as I’m trying to improve and got that feeling that I’m stuck.

My photos doesn’t have a well defined style, so the compositions and color grade floats a lot.

Honestly, this looks like a very refined style, and a strong understanding of depth, composition, exposure and lighting.

I am watching this thread to see more.
Here is a photo of mine.

They feel rather somber, and weirdly desolate for such a populated country. Not necessarily a bad thing.
I think the editing may be a little flat for my tastes, but it also emphasizes the vibe I mentioned earlier if that was what you're going for.
Composition is okay for the most part. Some are fairly touristy, but others are pretty decently composed and I think the advice of getting closer would be helpful next time you're taking people pictures. Cleaner composition around the edges of your pictures will help reduce the busyness that quite a few suffer from.

He's no Greg Girard that's for sure. Got his next book on pre-order, can't fucking wait.

Thank you for the feedback!

I’m trying to increase a little the contrast lately… but every time I increase a little, I think it was too much and go back to a flat image.

I’m a little shy and not much into taking people’s pictures, normally I avoid showing people on my photos (I do mostly temples and nature) and I think that I create distance for comfort in those situations. I’m going to try next time to take closer pictures, really appreciated the feedback.

These are my favorite. The street scene in particular tells a really good story and emphasizes that the moment is fleeting; I really like the visible skin and joined hands under the tulle. I think all of your photos have good technical execution.

>>4509869
I like this one too but more because of the setting, I'd like to see more of the building but this particular photo isn't that interesting. The framing is nice but could maybe be shifted down a little

>>4509868
I'd like to see what the guys at the table are doing but I get what you were going for

>>4509883
I just happened upon him recently, he seems to just get it. I really appreciate his length of service and that he's still active.
>>
>>4509889
Thank you for the feedback! Im glad that there are so many positive things about it, didn’t expect. You pointed a lot of things that I wasn’t seeing in my photos. Thank you.

Sure, I’m using the Canon R8, most of my photos were with the RF 100mm f2.8 and the RF 70-200 f4. For the wide angles, I’ve used the RF 16mm.

It came out pretty nice also, it gave the dog more emphasis.
