I think we have a good assortment of artists/photographers in here now, from the very new hobbyist to the professional photographers. And one aspect I've always preached is that "Practice Makes Perfect". But it's much more than that, it's about creating your style, finding your own vision, and presenting how you see the world through your eyes.
Another great tool to help you get there is to offer your work up for critique to help gain an outside perspective of your work. We sometimes get so engrossed in our vision that we sometimes miss some of the basic fundamentals. (Or maybe some of us just have poorly adjusted monitors)
But whatever the case, critiques are a good way to help refine your work amongst a group of your peers. But be prepared, some remarks might not be what you want to hear.
If you have a piece that you want to gain some outside perspective or get some advice on, please post them here and we'll all give it a round of critiques and advice. You can explain what you were trying to accomplish, what your vision was, and what equipment or settings you used for the work. I'm sure everyone in here is passionate about art, which is why you're even reading this in the first place. So let's keep it civil and help each other out.
