First attempt at putting multiple photos together. Pretty much full of noviceness. Crit is always welcome!  |

First, omg water shots I love it, I've always wanted to try this but I daren't in case my camera gets wet!
CC:
I love the first two shots together, there's a nice balance between the two shots, the lean and movement of the dog is lovely.
I really like the shot at the bottom as an individual shot (omg water droplets!), but I'm not sure if it goes with the other two (but the more I look at it the more undecided I am). It's a darker image, and unlike the portrait shots which seem more about the movement and dampness of the dogs, this bottom image focusses more on the water itself.
The white space between the two portrait shots and the bottom landscape shot seems to be larger than the space between the two portrait shots, which might be contributing to the slightly disconnect between the three images.

Water shots are fun! I definitely agree with Kayanem about the bottom shot being better as in individual rather than in a collage. Would help if the white spaces were even, but honestly I'd scrap them completely and just put the photos right up against each other. I just feel like for these shots, the white space adds too much separation if the goal was to create unity among the images. Does that make sense? I am by no means an expert, and I'm not great at collages myself but it seems to me that separation works best in collages where the photos are each distinctly different from each other, yet have the same "feel" (example: www.flickr.com/photos/pillipillihandmade/5444477227/ ) whereas images of different parts of the same subject work best without the separation since each of the parts contribute to one whole subject. I really don't know if I'm making sense. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? eta here's another example of where I think the separation works. Though the common theme of the collage/set of images is rain and the tones in the images match, each subject is distinctly different: www.flickr.com/photos/nictay_27/5518247502/ |

I'm totally awful for never responding to this but this is the first time I've been on since posting lol.
Thank you tonssss! Like I said I've never put things together before so I have/had noooo clue about any borders, and I was too lazy to fix spacing lol. I like watershots with my dogs. I just make sure to keep the lens hood on to keep water from going on the glass, and I extend the water hose away from me, aswell as being able to pause play for a bit and make sure the camera is okay. (:
