Yep, that’s it!

Are your photos in HDR? Just curious.

Did you see your photo posted on our Facebook page yesterday?

Also, do you have Instragram? If so, please let us know your handle (that goes for all photographers).

Nah, that are all single shot. doing HDR, especially with the sequence shots is a bit difficult. Hopefully i will be going back down next week with my wireless studio flash to help me out with the lighting, depending on the weather!

Yeh I saw it, pretty stoked… Thanks.

Do you have a closing date for the comp yet?

the reason why he asks is because your skies are all over-saturated. try to go for a more natural look. Also, on sequences, show the landing (at least 3 frames worth)

Thanks heaps for the feedback.
With 2 of the sequence shots my camera cut out on the last few frames, which was a bit of a bummer. Can I ask what ones are are over exposed/saturated ?
What kinds of shots are you looking for?

I’m not a photographer (Gamblor is), but I did have a quick play in Photoshop to show what he means by a more natural look. I thought some of your photos might have been HDR because of the very vibrant and rich colours. Anyway, have a look at the before and after photos below. Your photos are great, definitely not criticising you, but Gamblor is worth listening to (he has won photography contests on here in the past too).

EDIT: My version looks pretty washed out actually. I’m not really sure how to achieve the best look to be honest, but your version above is definitely very saturated.

Also, the closing date will be announce a bit later. We don’t have a confirmed date just yet, but you will get plenty of notice.
