>>3508205>No wonder this board is in such an abysmal statethis board is in an abysmal state because children with their first cameras post every single picture they take and ignore the cardinal rule of lurk the fuck more. if there's a shit storm of shit pictures, you're gonna get vague and shitty C&C because it's apparent that you put no effort into your work. everyone should be the biggest critic of their own pictures. what led you to think anyone would be interested in seeing your shit picture of water? do you honestly think anyone other than you would describe anything about that picture as STRIKING? like, how far up your own ass must your head be buried to think you're hot shit because of how great that picture is? it has no apparent subject / focal point--nothing to grab the viewer's attention; ask yourself what is the thing that the audience will want to look at in your picture. but I guess it's art because YOU say so right? no room for improvement at all because ART is entirely subjective and you can't be wrong.
>>3507235this picture has something for the viewer to look at. there's no argument about what you're meant to look at in this picture.
>>3507629similarly, in this picture the falling water is framed by the vertical columns, with the horizontal beams pointing your eye to the center of the frame where the subject is located. there is no question what the subject of the picture is
even if you don't like either of those pictures, they still have something that your STRIKING garbage doesn't have--and that's something to look at.
