Re: Photography...
That is an amazing pic. I think it's a little bit overexposed though. Would you mind if I play with it a little?

I'm a bad girl: I didn't wait for your approval:
What I did is I lowered the brightness and added some more contrast. After that I adjusted the levels a bit. Then I used the crop-tool to have the pump vertical.

Re: Photography...
haha, thanks. I'm usually one who will go back and take a new pic instead of editing. I mean, I'm good at editing, I just prefer unedited pics :P
It's mostly like that because I didn't let my phone adjust to the lighting, I just pulled it out, shot it, and walked away. I mainly took this pic to send it to mother so she could see what it looked like(She wasn't home)

Re: Photography...
Even the best photographers edit their photo's. There is not one commercial photo that is not edited.
I recently worked with an author on a book about WW II, did the pay-out for it. If I had not edited Most of the photo's the book would have looked like crap.

Re: Photography...
It wasn't as bright out today, so I retook it
deviantART
Still a little bright.. but then again, it looks brighter because the forum has a black background

Re: Photography...
It's not too bright though. This shows that a bit of clouds often make for better pics.
A trick for next time, when the sun is shining and it's too bright: hold your hand above the lens to make a shade. Make sure though that your hand is not visible on the pic.

Re: Photography...
I made a new DA account recently, mostly to be able to comment on other peoples work when I want to use their pics for youtube vid uploads
But didn't want it empty, so I uploaded a couple of pics I took with my crappy phone camera, my Pony pic and a couple of edits. They got favorited a few times and the second has been added to a couple of galleries. When I get around to it, I'll hook up the actual camera and download to the laptop. Got about 3k pictures on there that I never transferred
