it's taken from stanley park in vancouver. it's kind of tough but i agree some parts look a slight bit crooked, i think that might have been due to error in the tripod levelness when i was panning the camera for the shots

I love the minimalist composition, I wish you'd see more shots with almost 95% sky. Here is another good one. The colours and texture of those clouds is also amazing. Good shot man!

Wow those are actually really cool. I love the ones that are really simple and kinda just colours fading. I would love to hang them on a wall or something, would look so cool. Like these ones:

Some of them look almost like raster graphics or stock computer backgrounds or something. Impressive that it's natural.

oh makes sense.

I like the silhouette of what looks like a stick structure, wish there was a bit more emphasis on that (gotten closer/centered it, although looking at it again it seems like the woods behind it would have prevented you from capturing all the sunset and colors in the sky)

1 is just a stone, doesn't do anything, if anything I would have put it lower in the frame so that the rock and shoreline didn't overlap. 2, way to red/orange, over-contrasted. 3, still over-contrasted but at least the composition is interesting, I like how you can see up the river, depth is a really powerful compositional too. 4, the bokeh/tilt-shift looks like it was done in post, also not a fan of the faux-square crop with provia colours, if you want it too look like film shoot film. Overall I think that they are very, very over-edited.

Lol

First and last are Portra 400 with an RZ67. 6x7 and not 6x6, so yes, the last one is cropped
Middle two are Ektar 100 with a Nikon F5.

Minimal adjustment in post, with a LOWERING of contrast and some DESATURATION. Ektar and Portra are both saturated films with high contrast. Ektar is known for strong reds and Portra is a little cooler and has awesome skin tones.

Learn your film son.

Okay well half that is irrelevant because I thought you were trying to edit it to look like film, my bad. The last one looks a lot better in 6x7,

And yeah, ektar is mad contrasted, it's probably my least favourite colour film, so that was a little bit biased. I much prefer portra 160 for mid day.

Haha no worries man. I'm a huge fan of Ektar but that's all personal preference. I'm gonna pick up some Portra 160 in 120 once I finish off what I have now. I've only ever used 400 so it should be interesting.

Word. 160 is definitely different, it's not as warm as 400, still less crunchy than ektar though.

Click as always

Personally I think it might be a little over-edited, thoughts?

I personally dont like close up tree, far right. Espicially since there is a space between it and the edge of the picture. But the angle is awesome because it gives the stream that tucked away look. Maybe crop it a bit?
