Photo Critique: Let's Improve Your Photography! 24

[@angelaimbrenda4506]

Hi there....I am the woman in the first photo. I just found out about this photo being sent in and am embarressed. Never posed or liked that photo. (I am not a model). You are correct in knowing this is Red Rock Canyon in Nevada, one of my favorite places to visit as I live close by. I took a picture of a donkey close by that was better! LOL.

Hello! You did great, beautiful pose and great memories!

[@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle]

I don't know what it is but sir, you have it!

[@wollertz]

🤔 I don’t know what it is either

[@wyrent]

What I learned from you the most is how to find a way and please the subject in a better composition. Usually I assume beginners like me try to follow a subject, set exposure, speed, iso, and shoot away. I always forget to adjust the background in order to get better lines and leading points. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge, I am always following all your reviews and find them very helpful Have a wonderful day 🎉

[@wollertz]

Aweosme! Thanks for sharing . Yes, the composition makes the image, the technical aspects come in second 😅.

[@wollertz]

Of course 😉. Hope it helps!

[@kigabuma]

Thanks for the video.

[@wollertz]

You are welcome. Hope it was helpful!

[@GregKelton]

Another Great Video. I think you were spot on, with your comments. You did 3 of mine, and from watching your videos, I see my mistakes for Stock, and now I photograph totally differently. Thanks

[@wollertz]

Thanks so much. So glad to hear!

[@pauldarville3843]

Thanks Charles!!

[@wollertz]

You are very welcome! Thanks for the support!

I am watching this video as I write this. Great information and kind critiques. What kind of lighting do you suggest for stock photography. I have studio flashes but I find them really harsh.

[@wollertz]

thanks so much, my favorite is speed lights or strobes with diffusers or soft boxes, second would be led cob lights kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnzIg4usabZ8has

Thank you for the review :) I'll try to work on the lightning and commercial value. HUAWEI HUAWEI :D

[@vukburgic1626]

Will there be more videos of this kind, and where can i send my photos :)

[@wollertz]

Yes, I try to make 1 every month or so. There’s an email in the video description to send photos 🙌

Hi Charles, I recently heard that when you accept the new Adobe user agreement you are giving them total access to view ALL images on your hard drive, and who knows what else they will be able to access. What do you know about this? I am about to start stock. Adobe was my number one to start with, now I'm not so sure. Thanks for another great and useful video.

[@wollertz]

That is correct, I haven't looked into it too much. Tony Northrup made a video about it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHbFmJtjppyFecU It does bother me, but the reality of the day in age we live in right now, everything has access to our info, cellphones, rumbas, even smart Tv's can spy on you. On1Photo Raw is a good alternative 😅

[@jackthair8311]

@@wollertz Thanks for the help. I use Darktable and GIMP.

[@jackthair8311]

@@wollertz Do you know if Adobe Stock contributors will be effected?

[@wollertz]

@@jackthair8311 I don't see how. Only the images you upload, otherwise there is no direct relation to your computer like with the software

[@vladvira5271]

Hello! Is okey If I am using iPhone 15 pro max for stock photos? Or the phone is not ok for this type of photos ?

[@wollertz]

It will be very difficult, focus on video and editorial content

[@BandaraThilakarathna-hq6tx]

hello dear , I want to buy a camera ,this one good?sony a7iv.

[@wollertz]

I haven’t used that particular camera but it has great reviews from people who have

[@TheRaintree46]

I watched a bunch of your videos than realized there was a bar tender in Rumors bar that looked like you. that was weird.

[@wollertz]

I’ve bartended in many places but not there 😅 And not for a few years
