@mrniggerbaiter im british and u r a rasist.
@mrniggerbaiter Great, another fat racist american that thinks he is great at everything.
my camera better then you
@mrniggerbaiter im assuming youre american
@mrniggerbaiter Since when is photography skill based on nationality?
@mrniggerbaiter as much as any other nation
What do the British know about photography?
@screenbeat1 I would read the rules before I decide if I can punish the pixels or not.
@screenbeat1 If you want to send a picture for a competition it’d be a bad idea NOT to photoshop it. You can’t however add new things to it (make a digital painting or a photomanip). Things like editing colors(color corrections), cropping, black and white, are pretty much accepted and even suggested. You can also do lens corrections and so on.
1 Guy came last in a photography competition.
1 Guy lost a photography competition.
Was that Hanks Marvin at 6.00? btw, all these photos shown are RIDICULOUSLY amazing!!
@screenbeat1 It depends – different competitions have different rules, make sure to read rules. If there is no rules about photoshoping – go for it if You fell that poto needs it.
is it ok to photoshop your work to enter it into a competition or is a natural photo a better choice
Great tips. Thanks.
hey everyone! see what u think of my photography please im having trouble getting people to see my work,so go to my channel and click the photography video and tell me what u think.thanks!
@suxaniita try a magnifying glass or glasses
thats what i used to do
@6:47 eh?
Wahooo!! What amazing photographies !!!!!
@suxaniita My guess is try something with a better message and a dynamic outlook to distract from lower quality? :S
Hello, this video was very helpful. But there is a photography competition at my school this year, and the “theme” is “Mi city” but i don’t have a progessional digital camera, i have a regular digital camera which means i can’t focus things the way i’d want to. so..my question is, what advice woudl you give me to take a winning photo with just a regular digital camera?
thank you
Exactly.
With digital you can shoot as much as you like so go for it in a big way!
slightly alter things and pick out your best shot later.
You can easily delete the not so good ones later
I used to use film cameras a lot and there was always the worry of wasting expensive film.
Most people dont take enough photos of something they consider a good view or scene..
Take Hundreds of the same view if nesscessary and your memory card is big enough, pick out the best one later.
No words to describe this awesomeness!!
Blown away.
07:41 was awesome!
