My Worst Critic

I've gotten a bit involved in this Photoshop Talent Site. I'm learning so much and really enjoying learning new tricks and techniques, as well as expressing a bit of my creative side.

Most people will say that they are their own worst critic. I will tell you that Ryan is my worst critic. Hard to believe you say? Well I assure you it is true! He's not mean about it, but he will tell me what is wrong in any picture I do. Be it shadow, perspective, lighting, or "you're elephant doesn't look wet enough." Although this is slightly irksome, it's still a good thing, the things I can fix I will fix, and the things I can't...or it would take WAY too much effort to fix I just won't. When I submit it to competition, I must be ready for the critiques from my photoshop peers...by peers I mean people that are WAY better than me. After all,they ARE judging me, hence the whole competition thing.

Just in case you're wondering, there are prizes to these competitions. Money for 1st second and thrid, OR a great editing program or plug-in for adobe. As cool as it would be to win, it's hightly unlikely, but that's okay I'm just doing it to hone my skills. Why? I don't know, it's really a pointless hobby for me, but aren't most hobbys? I was quite impressed with myself though when my very first entry won 9th place out of 53 entries!

Check back to where I posted my entries and I will post the place I scored when that competition is over.
