A panel for the L of it...

==========================================

==========================================

What i do like:

  • these are all, i think, representativeof my general style (in so far as I have any style)
  • colours and light being big features
  • they demonstrate a reasonable range of techniques and (i hope) technical competences
What i don't like:
  • the 'bobbing up and down' of the bottom row in particular
  • combination of portrait and landscape format feels 'uncomfortable' to me. I've now rotated the lighthouse steps by 90 degrees to see if this helps, but i'm not sure that works so well as an image now.
  • i'm not sure about image 1 on row 2. I scored highly with this image on the OU ECA panel, but to me, it just feels like a lucky snapshot, nothing else. I'm unsure whether to include it.
  • the dandelion isn't technically great, i don't think, the detail in the fluffy bits could be better, and i'm not sure this'll blow up to A3 size particularly well.
  • is the purple flower macro (row 1, image 2) too abstract?

So, i'd appreciate comments, all and any comments, any feedback or suggestions. Be as harsh as you want. I'm quite sure that this panel is nowhere near the standard of an L panel for the RPS yet, but i hope that i'm heading in the right direction. All and any comments, suggestions and constructive criticisms welcome!

On a final note, these are the other images I was thinking of including, and which could replace any of the ones above, if they fitted better:

Selling images online

After months of looking around for just the right package, i've finally set up a website to help sell more of my images. I was getting a reasonable number of requests for prints to make it worthwhile setting up something more formal.

so, here it is: http://kajo.redbubble.com/

I have many, many more images in my library which are not hosted on the my RedBubble gallery yet - if there's something you want, i might just have it - just ask me, it costs nothing to ask! If i've got something you're after, i'll put it up on RedBubble and you can buy direct from there. There are lots more of my photos on Flickr

Other places i'll be adding myself to are:
http://www.fotolia.com (kajo123)
http://www.bigstockphoto.com/ (kajo)
http://www.stockxpert.com/ (kajo123)

and perhaps some of the others listed on here too:

Something or Nothing?

Thought it was about time I got myself onto blogspot, but now that I'm here, I don't have a great deal to say. Ho hum.
