My photo critique from "The Mindful Eye"

"The Mindful Eye", founded by Craig Tanner, previously with "The Radiant Vista", is an online photo community where you can go to gain inspiration and knowledge about the photographic life. One feature available there, which I love, is the Daily Critique. Members are encouraged to upload photos, and if selected, have the opportunity of getting a video critique by Craig Tanner. This critique is then posted on the site and YouTube for others to learn from, comment on and generally enjoy.

Today, one of my street photography portraits was chosen for critique.
"Smoker" is the title of the photograph.

Getting your work out there!

The world wide web has generated unprecedented opportunities for photographers wanting to promote their work. The video link attached here is an example of how I was able to get my work critiqued and then published online. This was presented by Craig Tanner on the "The Radiant Vista" website. This site was a great resource for uploading images daily for potential critique. Craig would select an image a day and create a quicktime video evaluating the selected piece. In this case , my series entitled "Alleys of Hope" was discussed as a series and presented on the site.



Craig Tanner is a phenomenal photographer, teacher, podcaster and writer. His teachings through podcasts and critiques have been invaluable to me as a photographic artist and I highly recommend visiting his amazing new site named "The Mindful Eye". Here, Craig has continued the tradition of supplying photographers with an awesome resource for learning and sharing.
