I just wanted you to know that I am very happy with the critique and guidance that I received from the 3 Pros that critiqued my photos. I have been inspired by all 3. I have been looking for some guidance to take my Still Life photos to the next level.
Just a quick note to say that I am very pleased with the feedback I received yesterday on my first photo critique from a Pro. Apart from being useful, I found the feedback thorough and positive, which is encouraging.I love gurushots because the critiques are so on the mark, in depth without insulting the photographer. As I have used the site my photographic skills have improved slowly but surely, a very gratifying experience.Animal Photography
