My brother is getting into photography and frequently asks me what I think. I'm a bit biased and don't know much about the finer point of the art. With the broad array of people here I thought I would post a link to his stuff if anyone is interested in checking it out. There's animals, landscapes, flowers, my son, sports, models, etc, etc.

Feel free to leave comments on what you think, he's looking for honest feedback.

For those who care, he's using a Nikon D40 I think, but I don't know which lenses he has. I know the one he wants is 7k.

Anyway, I appreciate it and hope you enjoy the pics as much as I do.

Cool Pics.

Nikon's are the only camera to use. IMO

May I make a suggestion to him? As a semi-professional photographer with 30 years experience, I have had some of my photographs appear in magazines.

Tell him to forget about the 1/3 rule. Where your subject should be in the center of the picture. That's not how pictures should be. No one wants to see grass, unless it's the hills of Ireland, or Kentucky grass that is "blue".

These are examples of the subject in the middle of the picture.

Now, here are examples of pictures with the subject at the bottom.

I think everyone will agree, that these are much better. The first 2 shots are examples of what I am talking about.

However, there are times that the ground is as interesting as the scenery. Example of the 3rd shot. Where you have the train and the running water beneath it.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”

      Sign him up. I am willing to bet he wouldn't finish a game with -2 yards.

      Why Panthers’ Dave Canales won’t run a QB sneak with Bryce Young

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      He is just fuging limited in every way.  On one hand, and nfl player, you would want to bulk them up so long as it doesn’t limit their mobility, elasticity, flexibility, ROM, or dynamicism - as is the concern with bulking up.  But the issue with that is, you would be worried about that when a guy has those traits to begin with.  Bryce is a very average athlete with a weak arm.  So if you’re not gonna be a great athlete with a strong arm, bulk up.  And if you can’t or won’t bulk up, find another fuging profession that doesn’t require athleticism and arm strength.  You’re built like a bitch AND aren’t a great athlete - you can’t be subpar in both categories…  well, unless you play for the Panthers apparently.
