These are some pictures I took at Harris Beach in Oregon. Hope you enjoy them... Do you see the hidden meaning in the last one? :D

These are really good!

1. Really good. Great angle and i like the silhouette.

2. I really like it. I love how the background is blurry. Again, good angle.

3. Pretty, but not my favorite. It looks...too messy in the background, but its still a good picture!

4. This one i like. Love the angle and how you have the ocean in the background.

5. Love it. A peaceful scene of the beach.

6. Good angle, and i like how its really clear.

7. This has to be my favorite. The flower is so pretty, and you did a really good job capturing it. Good one! :wink:

8. Not bad. Like the angle of it, so it only shows a little bit of the words.

9. Pretty good. I dont see the hidden meaning *head/desk* but i love the picture!


All in all, really good photo's. I can't wait to see more! :P

1: DEFINITELY my favorite. Everything about this is perfect. It's great.

2: I would have liked to see this entire thing in focus.

3/4: I would have liked the flower from 3 to be in the place of the flower from 4.

5: the person in the left corner is odd, I like the silhouette of this better.

6: If this only had one sign on this pole I would like it.

7: Pretty good, but unoriginal.

8: Ah boring.

9: I like focus...

1. Ooooh is he about to set off on a heroic adventure? Lol. His stance is perfect, a good angle, a beautiful sunrise and great silhouette technique.

2. It's alright but a bit more focus would be nice.

3. Centre on the flower here. The background is uninteresting.

4. Great background with this one and I like how the flower seems to be looking out into the distance.

5. Not the best beach scene but it's nice.

6. Crop the picture a touch to take the bottom of the other sign out.

7. Very pretty. I like the colour of this flower.

8. A strange choice of subject. Not really my sort of thing.

9. Not exctly amazing and it annoys me that I can't tell what's in the background.

I'm pretty sure I see the meaning in the last one. The yellow behind it is one of those wildlife-distroying digger truck things, isn't it? So the flower doesn't have long to live. In general, I don't like flower photography, but I really like that one.

#1 is pretty. I really like #2, it took me a minute to figure out what it is. I like how it's not in focus entirely.

I don't like the first rose, it's a boring flower. The second one it nice because it's at a different angle and there's a beach in the background. I like the shadows on the flower.

I love the sign and the firework. :)

I especially liked the one of the boy walking into the sunset. I liked how he wasn't in the center, allowing for a second focus, the sun.

Oooh, Kylan, these are gorgeous!

1. I love this. It looks like it belongs on an inspirational poster or something. Everything about it is perfect, but I especially love the lighting.

2. Interesting...

3. Not bad, but not particularly interesting or original.

4. I like how it looks like the flower is watching the sun go down. So pretty!

5. Gorgeous, but it could use a focal point. I think that's part of what makes number 4 so successful.

6. Neat angle!

7. Same as 3.

8. Again, the light here is really nice. The fact that it's a firework makes it even cooler, because it's like it's just waiting for the sun to go down fully so it can get shot off. Really neat!

9. This one's good too. Poor, unsuspecting flower. :P

They're all really good quality, but the only ones that stood out as really good to me were 2, 6, and 9. Nine only because of the meaning behind it.

The quality on all of them was really good, and so were most of the angles. Good eye =D

well... GOBBERS! this stuff rocks. you are better at this then i am. (little jelus face) i loved the stuff with a main focus and a blury in the back ground. if i could do that i would. of course 90% of my pics are of a sunset out by lake huron, a sunrise out in southern florida, and airplanes from the reno air races and the air show in oshkosh, Wishconson. so there u are. this stuff is really good. it took me a sec to figure out what was in the background in the last one. over all i was really impressed! keep going!.
I love Eryn Marie and there isent a thing you can do to stop me!!!!!

My favorites were 1, 5, 6, and 7. 1 and 5 are just beautiful, and the angles are perfect. With 6, I just loves pictures of signs. And the flower in 7 is gorgeous. They're all very good.

1. This one is so cool! I wish the dude was a little farther to the left, but it's nice, regardless.

2. What is that - is it a cigarette butt? If so, I'm very jealous of your macro lens, kid. A little more focus would be nice, but I know it's hard sometimes with things that are that small.

3. Nice, but I wish the blossom were a big bigger. Good picture regardless, it has a lot of nice color.

4. I feel like this would be even better if held to the "rule of thirds," but it's still a great shot. Such pretty scenery!

5. The touch of green at the bottom is really nice.

6. This would be better if it were centered.

7. Great color - Georgia O'Keeffe would love it.

8. This is cool, but the focus between the foreground and the background could be a little less drastic and it would still be nice.

9. I think we have the same slightly twisted sense of humor...

They're all very very good.

harris beach? like where we're going on spring break? like I'm insistent upon us going to the beach for a little while? (yes, we can bring your family if we have to...)

1) that's quinn, right? then again, it could be you, considering you two are twinsies...
2) very nice, good camera quality!!
7) I want these in my garden. I'mma plant them.
8) come now, kylan. there's a difference between being artsy and random object photography.
9) yes, destruction. funny boy. I like the flower, though, nice.
YEAH??
well, you forgot Poland.

THese are great. I absolutely love #2. My favorite one out of all of them. And who is the little boy in pic #1? i wonder.... and the meaning behind the flower in #9...very creative!
