Hi guys, there is a thread I started regarding this model and some early pictures I took, but these are some photographs of the finished model with water effects and I want some photographic advice.
These photos were taken in sunlight, using a blue sky as a background and then cropping to achieve a nice framed look. What I am asking is does it look realistic from a photographic standpoint, does the natural light and angles work? I had difficulty, mainly where I live, in getting the sky in the shot without trees, power-lines etc, some shots are taken with model at an angle, hence I think the shadows maybe too long.
This is about the framing, quality, lighting, aspects of the photographs, as the regarding the subject, does it look okay in the framing, light etc. I wanted to do it daylight as I disliked the flash, macro version I took, looked so false and just awful. The camera used is a Fuji-Finepix s 5500, an oldish one with various settings but nothing great, a auto setting was used. I am not a photographer so know naff all really, but just wanted to take a good natural picture that looked as realistic as I could. Comments, hints, tips all appreciated.
