In the time I spent doing it (I think I got to 290 or so) I didn't find myself getting better with every shot, but I was being rewarded by shooting every day. I did notice a gradual improvement all around.<br /><br />Marko's tips are pretty bang-on, and I'd suggest even doing themed weeks if you want to take it a step further. I'm thinking of heading out to Peggy's cove again at night to do some long exposure star trail photos out there, you should come with :)Tim Lingleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00243923637501422305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872029.post-61013688682501323842013-03-18T08:42:12.439-03:002013-03-18T08:42:12.439-03:00I hear ya Glenn - sometimes the muses are out for ...I hear ya Glenn - sometimes the muses are out for a beer while we are left holding our lenses in the wind.<br /><br />I find restrictions can help - going out to get 'something good' is far harder because it's so wide so general...it can be daunting.<br /><br />RESTRICT yourself and you will find this task way way way easier. make 1 day a red day, make another day an f2.8 day, make another day shooting up while lying on the sidewalk, make another day long exposure day, make another day 1/2500 minimum day, make another day where you shoot only cars, only dogs, only yellow, shoot from high places down, play with perspective, juxtaposition etc. etc.<br /><br />The only limit is your imagination. perhaps every sunday, map out 7 themes for the week.<br /><br />Hope that may help dude! <br /><br />best!MarkoMarko - Photography.cahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00660697510899923130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872029.post-9563364855609820552012-11-13T21:57:28.036-04:002012-11-13T21:57:28.036-04:00Yes, Anonymous, I agree.

However, I made a choice to submit images that were a bit different so I paid the price. Or they sucked. Take your pick :)<br /><br />I do agree with Anonymous' choices (except for the bird shot- your choice was better IMO). <br /><br />All you can do is submit your stuff. I do find that I probably am not a good chooser of the 'right' images for myself. Too close to them I guess. <br />I find the feedback I get from forums and flickr more useful in many ways than in contests. In the end it's an opinion in a moment in time. <br />I however love your photography. And there's no point in arguing with me, I'm always right.TeresaAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05311118900077951863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872029.post-70095686245688836182012-07-09T13:40:45.296-03:002012-07-09T13:40:45.296-03:00@Anonymous, I guess the answer is yes and no.
I&#...@Anonymous, I guess the answer is yes and no.<br /><br />I'm not giving up because of a little disappointment but I had no intention of giving up when I wrote that post anyway.<br /><br />I still think my images can be have a stronger impact and I will continue to work at making them better.<br /><br />I'll just have to see what next year brings. Maybe my images will make the cut next year and maybe they won't. Either way, I will enjoy the experience of making the images.

Also, everyone looks for different things in photographs, so it's hard to "judge" without knowing the boundaries of the contest. <br /><br />There is nothing "wrong" with your images. However, they seem to be more of a technical exploration - very well executed - that one would find in a photography book. The judges, having seen these types of images often, are looking for something else within that context. <br /><br />For example, interesting light, thematic relationships, geometry, immediacy, etc. <br /><br />The Parliament image has great light, but IMHO, the framing doesn't work. The people who take these kinds of images spend days trying to get the shot just right, and sometimes the site limitations have to be worked around to get the shot.<br /><br />Don't worry; I dislike every single one of my images! <br /><br />: )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872029.post-32683684893614051432012-06-29T23:43:09.324-03:002012-06-29T23:43:09.324-03:00That's a good question, Anonymous... they were...That's a good question, Anonymous... they were<br /><br />1) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/7198582332/in/photostream (in Macro)<br /><br />2) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/6906999149/in/photostream (in People)<br /><br />3) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/6010586496/in/photostream/ (in Digital Darkroom)<br /><br />4) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/6342163980/in/photostream/ (in Print)<br /><br />5) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/5806393141/in/photostream (in Travel)<br /><br />6) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/5797253780/in/photostream/ (in Animal)<br /><br />7) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/6950511941/in/photostream (in B&W)<br /><br />8) http://www.flickr.com/photos/eulothg/5731509645/in/photostream/ (in Nature)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04867057216314570902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872029.post-13939085294558677112012-06-29T23:19:49.559-03:002012-06-29T23:19:49.559-03:00Glenn,
