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.

Are my photos any good, perhaps to make income from? (alien.top)

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.

I'll be the nice guy here by saying some positives...

You're asking some very seasoned photographers about your work. Take it as constructive criticism. Don't get down and dumpy over it, but take it as a lesson. Not too many in the craft would even give you this much attention.

You also have created your own portfolio (website). Not many know how to do that starting out. Most who say they want to be a photographer saturate an Instagram account and think they're the next Ansel Adams.

Your photos are purely snapshots. Work with that. Work on your lighting and white balance, as mentioned in the other comments.

Go to the local library and peruse the photography books and literature. It's free and you can learn more than what you can imagine. Not only how to take a photograph, but also the history. Immerse yourself in the how's and why's.

Good luck! We've all been there, and all have different beginnings.
