Wow! after read the last topic I will check my collection and delete a lot!
Geofrey : you make me think, and you are right, there are so many bad pics, and so many are a series of the same bad pics. But perhaps, there are two problems: People don´t understand the english so well,(like me), then they can´t participate in the forum or read and understand the rules, even the comments and probably so many people are learning about photography.
Sometime I do not put bad comments, because it make me feel bad and I don´t want to hurt anybody and probably it is a mistake. I am only a person who likes photography, I am only amateur and I can´t make suggestions to anybody. A said thanks to all the comments and suggestions made on my pics and the critics and advises. there are so many people who knows more than me. When I take a look over other collections, many time I think: what i am doing with my camera? But seeing other pics I learned a lot
I saw more than one who were growing in the Photography quality
About photos: good? bad?Learning from the others.(like me) .
as always: sorry by my poor English

First of all I think that you have a nice portfolio. But you are right, we learn every day by looking to pictures and saying "why couldn't I have made this". Myself I think that I have learned from my fellow Woophians and from other photosites and photo magazines. It's just a matter of being confronted with pictures, analysing them, but most of all appreciating them or being touched.

Thanks Pansa!
Each pic, mine or from the other have a special meaning for who take the pic, probably is the way to show the feelings . Photography is an art and I want to learn to show that I like or move in the better way as possible.
The people who knows more than me show me the way.

@hola Silvia, creo que siempre puedes expresar tu opinion, aún si tu comentario es critico todos podremos aprender de el y sabremos tu manera de mirar la fotografía, los comentarios como nice, beautiful etc....no aportan nada, son como las fotografías de mascotas, atardeceres y algunas flores, son imagenes mudas que no nos dicen nada del mundo ni de su autor. La fotografía para mi no es solo lo que se ve es tambíen lo que hay detrás de ella.
Muchas veces somos como automatas, yo incluido, que si la gente pide imagenes de atardeceres hacemos imagenes de atardeceres, hay algunos que comparten el gusto por este tipo de temas, esos ya son gustos personales y no pienso criticarlo. Pero si de verdad deseas crecer en la fotografía busca tu estilo personal, aquello que solo tu deseas expresar y darnos a conocer, lo que quieres que miremos atraves de tu ojo y de tu cámara.
Sergio.

Sergio: Tienes toda la razón, particularmente, me gustan muchos temas en la fotografía, especialmente los amaneceres, atardecers, el cielo y la naturaleza en general, desde la flor pequeña, hasta los maravillosas vistas de inalcanzables y lejanos paisajes. Me gustan los retratos y los detalles y todavía estoy buscando "mi " forma de mostrar lo que me gusta.
Hay muchísimas fotos de esos temas, de otras personas que son admirables, y de ellos aprendo mucho.
Tienes razon en cuanto a los comentarios " very nice" "beautiful" pero cuando el idioma en el que te tienes que expresar no es muy fluido, resulta muy complicado decir lo que se piensa de una fotografía. He visto buenas fotos en que los objetos estan centrados y que serían ( a mi modesto modo de entender) mucho más interesantes si se las encuadrara de otro modo, o fotos que no son nítidas, incluso a mi me pasa, que pierden parte de su encanto. He visto fotos muy fuera de foco, con lindos temas y bien encuadradas, pero poner mi opinión me resulta dificil por lo que te dije del idioma.
Si recibo criticas o consejos en mis fotos, mas allá del very nice o beautiful me pongo muy feliz y espero que si ves algo que puedo mejorar me lo digas ya que gracias a Dios al español lo entiendo muy bien (ja ja ja). Gracias, de todo corazón, por tus palabras. Silvia

Thank you for this topic, as I seem to have fallen into a bad patch over , I think, the type of camera I was down to & was not sure it was allowed for me to use Frankenstein( a re-utilized put-together camera) that takes alot better pics. I am known to post bad pics, just for the sharing of friends for a moment. I try not to take to long in deleating them & try not to use this more secure web sight as a myspace place.
But, I am looking at some of the ratings, all of a sudden I'm a Bad photographer. Yet, only a few comments to the obvious as to why it is a bad photo(i.e., it is not a sharp as could be, is not as focused, is not cropped proper, etc...) (Thanks for the honesty without meaness!).
My girlfriends & I talk such things on the phone, so I'm choosing to think the low ratings are a Kudos! for content, compo, whatever I think is Right with it...? I'll try not to waste this Space, anymore & Hope for the best with Ya'lls English. I do understand, perfectly. I tried to upload off Frankenstien & it was not allowed. So, I post with what I have to Learn.
