|  | | | These are from a massive day long shoot that spanned from industrial foundry storage to drainage pipes to a utility tunnel network under my school. first time doing photos, let me know what you think/what i can improve on.
EDIT- there are a few more but the computer I'm on is completley incompetant, i'll upload them later.

|  | | | Very Nice. I really like them.
Its unfortunate the lighting made the photos yellow, but I do understand what its like. I have a few sites I've photographed that's happened.

| | | | I believe the yellow tint is due to the white balance, make sure you adjust the white balance in your camera's menu. (If using digital or Digital SLR)

| | | | Yea, easiest way to adjust white balance = shoot raw.
Second easiest = adjust it in camera when you're shooting
Third easiest = tweak it in photoshop in post processing.
It amazes me people haven't owned up to the fact that you must post process your digital photos, just like you must with film. I feel it if people don't want to overprocess, but at the same time...you wouldn't make an 8x10 without making a test strip. Same thing for basic digital processing.

| | | | But it's digital! The camara's computer makes it all better! Therefore I don't need to post-process!

| | | | Actually i did post process all of these, tweaking contrast and such where it was needed. i actually love that there was such a strong natural color scheme to these so i didn't touch it. it was kind of cool being in an area with such an odd tone, which i think was from the lights but i'm not sure.

i used to be a hard-core digital-in-camera guy.
then i got the clue.
i think that the biggest difference is that you have the concepts and knowledge that darkroom experience gives you, whereas many people who started out with a digital camera don't quite understand that just letting the camera generate JPGs and leaving it at that is the equivalent of getting half-assed prints from the minilab in walmart.

| | | | I don't think post-process would HURT, but you need to choose more interesting subjects and compositions to start with. There's nothing to look at or consider or appreciate.

Dingdingdingding! We have a winner!
I like the colors in the first three but all of them aren't very interesting to look at. Tilting the camara to make an uninteresting shot interesting helps a little but unless there is actually something to look at it comes off as an amaturish attempt to be beyond the level of photography you're actually at.
But at least you're trying different things. That kind of camara angle with some interesting medical stuff could enhance the creepy factor of a shot dramatically.
