Glendalough

[conspired]

Old photos, again. This time, from Glendalough in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is an ancient monastery founded by St. Kevin.

Mods: If you feel these are not appropriate here, please move them. I did not think the amount of digital alteration was significant enough to be placed in the Digital Art section.

Again, I appreciate any C&C on these, though I doubt I will get any again. My previous thread has shown that my art here is not well-received as I have not gotten any comments at all. Considering I thrive on feedback to learn, and to improve my work, I'm not getting anything out of posting here at all. With that said, I will most likely discontinue posting my work here.

I try to comment on others' work, and do my best to contribute. I know others here could improve drastically if given the guidance. Sorry for the rant; I just had to get it out.

They don't hit me artistically. There like photo's you see everyday, nothing spectacular.

Try getting a point of interest in the shots. =)

Amazing community.

HOLY SHIT, I ACTUALLY GOT A COMMENT.

Anyways, I know they aren't the most amazing shots. After all, they were taken over a year ago with a crappy little p&s camera. I just thought the place was interesting, it has so much history. Thanks for your opinion, though. I'll check out that community though I doubt I am up to par with the rest of the artists, and I feel I always have a difficult time being accepted into new communities. Guess I'll have to work on that.

Ah love the history :P Be a little more bold, try diff angles and perspectives. Everyday things can be turned into brilliant objects of art.

I thought the first one actually had a nice angle and i like the affect. The 2nd one is jst pretty boring and i dont like the angle.

i really like the first pic, good angle and blur at the bottom, so it really focus' on the tower, however, the second pic is flat and boring.

I think the first pic is interesting. Blurs into the tower nicely. Rare site, good pic.
