But if you win a competition then your photography skills are surely enough to comment on someone else their photos right?
Also I find that judging is different then giving constructive comment on photos.
With judging it's all personal and I simply say what I like and don't like about a photo without actually going in to technical aspects. With C&C that's one point you talk the most about but surely personal comments help as well to see what part or which photo works for someone else.
I've read some of your comments and I think they are good, so don't talk yourself down so much. Everyone is qualified to have an opinion.

But seriously, it's fun, try it!

Nobody ever appreciates a true artiste... while they're living!
here is another test shot while I was setting up:
this one my boy climbed in... The chair at least matches the backdrop.. I chased him off for a bath, hot dogs and ketchup all over him lol!

I'm just trying to find something actually looks retro...
the model I have coming over next week does a retro styled burlesque dance routine.
Everybody shoots her in b&w and Sepia...
I figure f' it, I can do color, modern and retro at once....
