Re: nidding's first year of shooting
Those clouds are great. I agree with Deezey. I'd bring out the building just a bit. Make sure it looks like a building. It's really distracting as a silhouette.

Re: nidding's first year of shooting
Thank you so much for all the great advise.I think you are all right, and hope to have time to make an edit over the coming days. As mentioned the photo was sort of in a hurry. The reason was that my wife had gone into labour, and that we were on our way out of the hospital. This leads me to the photo of
Day 105
This is my daughter at age 20 minutes, and the very first photo ever taken of her

And a little later when we had come home and she had a rest in her parent's bed

Her name is Dagmar and I'm very sure you'll be seeing a lot more of her in this thread

Re: nidding's first year of shooting
We are so happy. The little one is doing great and is making no trouble at all so far - she just seems happy with life
The reason I bought my camera in the first place was to get some proper photos of her, so now I'll have to up my game
My twin sister is actually having a baby in a few days as well (which is purely coincidental, by the way), and as she named her first son the name that I would have taken if I had had the first boy, we had to check befre the babies were born what names we each were contemplating, and sure thing the first name on her list was Dagmar as well. I guess it's just a name that is tied up to our family
Apart from all the regular photos I'll take of her, I plan to take one picture per month and collect in a project. Then when she has grown up, we can put them all together and track her growth. It's not too original by now, but I'm sure we will be happy about it when she is a teenager
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I'm sure I speak for all of us here when I say all the best to you, your wife and the family!
Thank you all!

Day 106
This looks somewhat like the one from yesterday

I think this was more like I had plans to have the previous photo look like, but I must have been a bit too tired to notice how flat it looked. Good thing we have all the time we need for trying again

Re: nidding's first year of shooting
I tried to apply the corrections that @Deezey, @wud and @wreckdriver1321 proposed to day 104. I think it helped but should probably just have composed a little differently from the start

Day 107
To be frank, my head is NOT working to full capacity these days. And certainly not when not dealing with a certain small female being. But there is still a picture to be taken, and today my wife asked me to take a picture of a set of mother/daughter flowers. As the two bouquets should be taken together and I wanted to try something a little creative, I tried to stitch two focus settings to one image. As I said, my mind is totally off track and I'm totally unable to judge if this can pass for a usable photo...

Re: nidding's first year of shooting
At the nearest bouquet, the back is blurred out which doesn't make sense, since the back one are focused. So either a re-take or clone the blurred part out.
Also please include the full vase in front!
Besides that, it looks very good! Nice and clear and I love the simplicity of the image

Re: nidding's first year of shooting
You are absolutely right. In my mind yesterday it made perfect sense to blur out the back of the front bouquet, but I think that was more or less only to emphasize the focus play. I totally agree with you however, that it only makes sense to go with the natural way it should work
Looking at it today, I like the light however. It's shot with a single flash, and I actually think it works rather well and natural
