Busy Jack Frost

I took these pictures on a frosty Sunday morning.

Oh wow! You have quite an eye! These are stunning. I love the first and last ones, in particular. Great composition. Just curious, what dimensions are they? They seem long and thin, which I think emphasizes your images.

Hi Junglelover! *waves erratically*

Picture 1 – I like this one a lot, right from the start. It just grabbed my attention which is a really good thing obviously. My only real complaint is that it seems a little washed out.

Picture 2 – the brightness of number two seems a little too bright and it washes out the sky in the picture, which looks like it would have been a lovely color. The idea is great, on all of these, but they all seem…a little washed out.

Picture 3 – The branch on this one is the only bad thing about this actually. There isn’t even an washied outie ness to this but the branch that was closest is so large and blurred that it pulls the eye away from the crisper lines of the rest of the image.

Picture 4 – I just want to say, “How did you get that ring around your picture because it looks really cool.”


Your ideas are all really great. My only real overall recommendation would maybe be to add a little contrast to your pictures and tone down the brightness. Any basic photo editor should be able to help.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. You know, you live in a really pretty place by the way!

These are gorgeous. What kind of camera do you use?

1) Excellent light. You could crop off some of the ground at the bottom though; it's just empty space distracts from the focus of the photo.
2)The light sort of washes this one out, but your angle is good. Nice use of the rule of thirds. You could solve the washed-outness by putting a filter on it, if you have Photoshop. If not, maybe try lowering your exposure next time.
3) This is nice. I just don't like the branch that's closest in the foreground; it's too blurry and hurts my eyes.
4) Beautiful. How in the world did you do that?

Your photos are fantastic. I'd like to see more.

I really love these kind of pictures.
The first was my favorite but the others were really good to. I love how the time of day you chose to take these pictures. Especially the first and last. Keep it up!

Hello once again, Junglelover! =]

Lovely pictures here. =D

First Picture: This one is nice, but I think the sun draws your attention too much, so you don't really pay much attention to the rest of the picture.

Second Picture: Woah, I really like this one, probably my favorite, haha. I think this could be improved by cropping it and cutting of part of the edge of the left side.

Third Picture: This one is also really nice. I don't really see anything that I think should be changed, haha.

Fourth Picture: How did you do that? o.o The only thing that bothers me here is that in the lower left corner there is a random white line. Otherwise, that's awesome.

Keep it up!

1. I love this so much! I wouldn't change a thing. It can't be improved.

2. I LOVE this too! Maybe you should take the trees out on the right hand side so that the tree in the middle is the center of attention. Like this:

3. I like this, but there is a lot going on. My eyes keep being drawn away from the twig you focused on. It is great that you can see the crystals though.

4. I really like this. The pink circle totally adds to the affect! In the bottom left hand corner there is a weird line; you should probably take that out. Also the tree on the right side draws my eyes away. If at all possible you should take that out.

Hope I helped,

Thank you all for your help and comments!

Explosive: I used just a cheap camera that I bought at Wal-Mart for like 60$.

The red is just the Sun's light....

Oh! These are really pretty.

I don't have any problems with your first three, but they don't strike me as amazing. I mean, they're cool, and frosty... but nothing new or special. Pictures of lone trees and tangles of branches/flowers are a little overdone. However, I love your last one! It's a lone tree, sure, but it's in this giant pink bubble. Sometimes when the sun gets in your camera, it looks even better, and I think this was the case. I have this thing with bubbles... love them. Keep using your cheap camera... it seems to be working pretty well for you.

I agree with this statement they're all largely generic ones except for last one. Nothing really grabs you about them, nothing really focuses them on anything. When taking a picture you should try focus on something. Because if you didn't it shows quite a lot. My main problem is you had a wonderful landscape but didn't really use it. And I'm say to say it shows. They looked rushed and not thought out. A picture should tell a story should bring an emotion. Right now these don't except last one, it tells a story. And it's only one where you used the light or tried being a little creative.

Hope this helps.

Wow. I absolutely love the pictures 1 and 4. The first picture does seem a little faded, but the colors are still amazing. It reminds me of the mornings where I live.

The last picture blew me away. It's wonderful. What is that white line in the bottom corner? It almost lookes like a piece of fencing.

Wow, these pictures are great! I love frost and what it does to nature. Your light composition and angles are wonderful. I think you have real talent.
I have some pictures of my own that I would like to post but I can't, it says the picture is invalid. Has it ever done that to you?

hi there!
here is what i think.
number 1:looks like a nice old house. i love the lighting and the line of trees.

number 2:well on this one, you should have been standing to the left a little, or you should have moved to the left so the tree was in the middle of the sun and the picture. but that's just my opinion.

number 3:now this one, there isent much to say about cause its already really good, but the branch is a little blurry.

number 4:this is my favorite! reason number 1 the bubble. number 2 looks like you had to be blind for a few mins.
