A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Sorry if this breaches the rules.

I'm currently unemployed, seeking a job.

But I'd really like your opinion on the picture that I take.

Yes, I'm linking to my personal website.

Sorry

Are the pictures any good? Could I perhaps leverage them for extra income?

Sorry. please assist.

edit: I have edited my website to indicate that yes, I am wensul on that website.

EDIT OF EDIT. WORKING ON IT. my website is very poorly designed (by me, duh) and google needs time to process things

EDIT X3 The update seems to have gone through. Yes. top banner exposes my name, and username. That was my choice.

I'm honestly more concerned about my photos.

Your technique is adequate. Sorry, though, but your eye is not. These are, at best, snapshots of things you like or think are interesting. None of them say anything. Any art can be considered successful when it allows its audience to have a better understanding of themselves and the world they live in. In that context, your photographs are not successful art. I'd recommend studying some of the great photographers. Focus on their selectivity. Ask yourself, "What does this photographer think about his/her subject?" Then go out in world with your camera and look for opportunities to speak through your photographs.
