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.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
