Very well-done Pre_Raphaelite style image. -
Good street shot. Color seems distracting--maybe try b/w? -
Amazing(?) hair on this one. Great outfit, too, and the light is just right. -
Some very nice incongruities here. -
So how did you get Luna Lovegood to take off her clothes? Good pose and location, but I just have this prejudice against green skin tone. -
Interesting composition in an odd location. I like the non-presence of other humans. -
Good shot of the gooshy bug--glad it isn't a focus stack. -
Very fine image, even if it is a sunset. -
I don't love tattoos, but they work for this image. -
Good form. -
<p>I have never liked a Visible Dust product, but others have. The pre-moistened Sensor Swabs work well, as does the old Pec Pad on a stick (Copperhill) method. It's not difficult to clean a sensor--usually I need about two-three passes to get it done.</p>

Lovely, restrained colors and effective composition. -
I love the color and blur quality, but I'm not so fond of the 'brush strokes'. Especially at the large size, they look unnatural. -
<p>Yes, I know. "Mumble, mumble, bokeh, eye-cue, DR, mumble, mumble. Let's see you shoot a Formula 1 race. Mumble."</p> <p>Herewith the winners of the<a href="http://www.ippawards.com/?project=2014-winners#prettyPhoto"> 2014 iPhone/iOS photo contest</a>. I'm impressed, anyway. BTW, if you click on the first image, you'll open a slideshow window with larger versions of all the images. The one of the Dalmatian is incredible.</p>

<p>Your camera will probably come with a "Quick Start Guide", or similar item. Just read it carefully and follow it slowly, and you should be fine. Mostly, there are three things that 'break' cameras. 1) Heavy rain soaking the camera. 2) Dropping the camera. (The most common one) 3) Forcing something. Lenses, caps, etc. all should go on smoothly and easily; if they don't, back off and look at the manual carefully.</p> <p>Don't worry too much. Cameras aren't THAT delicate. So use the strap and keep it around your neck. Have fun, you'll learn the basics quickly enough. If not, we're here.</p>

<p>My Sekonic L508 is a wonderful meter. Lots of neat features, very accurate.</p>

There's a bit of sadness and nostalgia to this that I really like. Colors are simple enough not to distract, and the background blur seems right. -
Is this another one of those damn spiders with too many eyes? :) -
Very lovely presentation of an iris. -
Dixie Highway Hollywood Florida 1997 frame 8

Wonderful image, compositionally and emotionally. IMO, could use a bit of processing. It's a little too flat for my taste . -
Nice symphony in green, beautifully composed. -
Excellent flower shot--stamens look like some kind of insect. -
Which films have deep contrast?

<p>This work (which I like a lot) has the look of Ektar 100, possibly with an action applied in post. If you search for "free photoshop actions" you will probably find a few worth trying--be sure to manipulate the parameters of the action if possible to get your own look. I believe that the photographer cited uses a lab for scanning. The EXIF indicates "Noritsu Koki QSS30". This is a popular pro-lab/mini-lab scanner that costs a year's income for a successful photographer.</p>
