First glance I see just three black dots. I have to blow it up to see the text. Perhaps instead of sky/clouds, you can make the background transparent. It's worth a try.

Honestly Damon, I find the clouds to be just way too distracting. Maybe if they were blurred a lot more the letters would stand out more but as they are now, I find it difficult to read.

The clouds and the letters are both white and it is a bit distracting. Also one camera lens in the O of Damon's is sufficient versus the 3 lens pictures.

What kind of clientele are you trying to atrract? What are you trying to convey with this logo? Are you trying to drive web-traffic? - one would assume so. I am sure you want us to be honest with you and if this is a business for you or more importantly, you lively hood, punches can not be pulled. This is "caca". Cloud backdrop should not be there. Makes me think i am looking at a logo for an airline - i would not even take a second look at this logo if looking for a photographer. Take out the camera lenses, i find it tacky - i think the word "photography" will give people the hint;) If you are going to put the .com in there, make it bigger. Photography is an art form... this logo is not art. With all due respect, my 5 year old could do better. Think of what you want to convey, what clientele you want to draw in.... you need to grab peoples attention an have them say, "i want to hire Damon as my photographer!!" This logo will only leave people wondering what kid you got to make this logo. It does not exude any professionalism and i am sure you want to be seen as a proffessional - this logo is your companies "ambassador" so to speak. Sorry for the harsh criticism, but i can't lie to you when it comes to your business.

I think it's Pretty.The clouds make it soooooo dreamy.Great for a sky pilot,not so great for a Drag Racing photographer friend of mine.
Some dark reds and blacks maybe inbehind the white lettering.Make your name jump out at us.No lenses.Good Luck,Joe

I've been considering a logo also, afew things I have learned is they should:

-Be simple
-Recognizable
-Wording should be short and letters stand out (kill the clouds)
-You don't need photographic props- Does Nike use a shoe? We all know what the swoosh is without words or sneakers to tell us what they are.

Dog-gone! There is no mercy with this crowd, roflmao

First point is you have to ask yourself if that is what you think your potential clientele would be expecting. If that would be people wanting you to shoot weddings and birthdays then it is fine.

Second point is when a first time viewer's becomes distracted by asking themselves WTF are those dots??? Then you failed. A logo is supposed to make an impression as the viewer quickly moves past it to the meat of the page. You don't want their attention to stall out trying to figure something out.
