treat for you guys- elevation photos

[slang]

here are a bunch of shots from elevation. magazines dont seem to check their email inboxes, which is really frustrating, so i'm just gonna post a few of them here as they're remaining stagnant on my hdd.

You must be joking!

I'm going to be a jerk and critique them all. Since you're trying to get them into magazines, I'll assume you want it:

1. One of the better ones, good use of a slave (or at least, what looks to be a slave). It suffers from a lack of composition, there are no really interesting lines (this goes for most of them).
2. The clouds look awesome, but it looks over PSed. WAY too much contrast. You shouldn't have to rely on contrast to make a photo jump out at you.
3-5. Good snapshots that document what was going on there, but nothing more.
6. I like this photograph. Even with slave syndrome.
7-8. Too much contrast again, plus the flip turndown isn't clicked (yeah yeah I know, I'm nitpicking, but I'm sure he clicked it, and that's when the pic should have been taken). Again, cool sky in 8.
9. Again, snapshot.
10. My favourite of the set, haha and it's the smallest jump. It's an innovative idea, clicked trick, and perfectly framed. If anything, you could have not taken it at that angle, it kind of makes me feel drunk.

Hope you don't take offense.

I was about to say some of things of mentioned, BrianPark. Holy contrast on #2, I just have to mention it again. Also, #6 may have been better if we could see abit more of the riders face? Very good shots, nonetheless.

Brianpark: offence? no. it's exactly what i want. I'll note your critisism.

These are all my "2nd rate" shots that I'm just using to try and generate interest in my work though. I have better ones (although not that much better than these) that I'll put on the net eventually if nobody wants them.

You're definately right though. Over-contrasting/PSing, and the shots are generally quite boring and lack creativity + too much slave.

Good to hear. It's just that people get pissy around here pretty quick.
Personally I'm hoping that nobody else wants your good ones, so we can see them. But that's selfish of me huh?
