Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Alma amphi
Its the first picture Ive uploaded for the first article ive created myself. The primary reason id like feedback is to see if Im on the right track with the article in choosing a good photo, or if my 'taste' is completely wrong, as id like to upload a photo that does this part of the building justice, thanks

- The uneven lighting makes this look really ugly. A more appropriate time for this shot would be in cloudy weather or near sun(rise|set). You should select a narrower aperture (higher f/number) to make sure everything important is in focus. You should also touch up the subject before taking the picture by, in this case, removing the aluminium can. MER-C 07:54, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- Obviously you're not suggesting this for FP say, just looking for feedback. A few other points: I know nothing about this place, but this really just looks like someone's backyard - but if that's the best view of the place... Secondly, is it not possible to get a wider view of this scene, it feels a bit cutoff? Thirdly, a more natural/typical view of an ampitheatre is looking up into it, not down from the top, see Commons:Amphitheatre for many examples - perhaps you had a reason for shooting down, for example to get the Alma sculpture thing? It's not bad, keep working on it. --jjron (talk) 13:42, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
