[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 508119, member: 6277"] I have the same problem with people shots too. Been working with a pro recently to get my eye better. What he has had me doing is following a number of top photographers along with a number of not so great photographers and making me do a rapid fire critique of the shots of each. I have to tell which ones I like and WHY and also which ones I don't like and WHY. The why is the important part. Then I have to go through my photos with him and do the same thing. I see things in my own work that I have not paid attention to before. Also sometimes it is hard to here not so positive things about your own work. My friend would always "like" my photos on facebook until one day we were sitting at his place and I told him to not "Like" my photos anymore unless he really did like them. Been working with him since. I am building a website for him and generally his resident geek and he works with me on my photography. Here is the site I am building for him.
