Are you trying to be Alphon 2.0 christmas day snapshitting on purpose?

If no, here are your main problems.

Bad light. Soft as fuck and really boring. Everything looks grey. Would skip city on Eurotrip

Shooting too wide. Get closer to your subject if you want to shoot wide. I cannot see the subject in these photos even after you point it out.

its Vienna dude. The place which is most commonly used in films as "Location where some dour dowdy ass shit goes down before we get to the actual action". It comes a close second to Prague in the "Still looks like 1931 Germany" competition.

The funny thing is, his photos probably turned out better since he at least got within 10 feet of his subject, and because he actually had a subject.

Also, you're not a gearfag at all for noticing the cameras other people use, not at all.

Toxicity, disregarding the quality (or lack thereof) of these photos, your attitude in this thread is rather telling. Your ubiquitous self-hate explains a lot of about your brash and intolerant behavior on here.

Looking at these images, and the way you've presented them, my critique to you would be to take some time out for yourself and try to become a nicer, happier person. You're still very young, and you don't want to go through the rest of your life being a self-destructive, self-loathing asshole.

I think this may be Toxicity trying to make peace with /p/ by letting the board rip him apart.

I can not think of any other reason why he would post such obviously bad snapshits to a board he full well knows is absolutely livid with him.

It's like interwebs suicide. To make it worst, all the people who are pissed off with alphon are also probably using this thread to vent their rage as alphon's actual photos are harder to shoot down than these abominations.

Explain yourself Toxicity. Is this some sort of PR stunt.

I think he's actually being serious.
Although, to be fair to him, at least he's out shooting and practicing. Remember that anon last week with a low quality half eaten plate of beans and mash potato posting their picture that they thought displayed 'good comp'?
At least he's not 'mash and beans on a badly cropped plate with built in flash used' bad.

Please post one example of this.

Also irony has to do with a statement of combining two particles and receiving an amusing contradictory outcome based on misintepretation or word play..
An example of actualy irony would be 'Troll tan said that toxicity's composition is shit, which is ironic because Troll tan is an amatuer scat porn photographer'.
So many people use irony incorrectly, it's the bane of my life.

This may be a controversial statement, but at least Alphon posts decent photos.

The problems with this board stem more from gearfaggoting in non-gear threads and lousy critiques from people who think every photo with any one of the following turn a photo into a 0/10 snapshit:

-not tack sharp
-not following rule of 3rds to a T
-doesn't have 100% straight verticals and horizontals
-has any trace of grain
-was shot on anything over ISO 100
-is of a subject they don't personally like
-is in a genre they don't like/understand
-was taken on anything other than a current top of the line DSLR or an MF camera
-etc. (too many to list now that I started thinking about this)

>>
>>1854262
What's the point? Anything posted will be instantly deemed "shit" by you. Nice overexposed photo.
>>
>>1854241
This is so true though.

The attitude of /p/ is about 'tough love' and I get that, but I can't help but feel like it's more about stroking your own ego and refusing to admit that the 'snapshit' you're hating on actually has a semblance of merit in it.

The stuff about noise and straight horizons are annoying in particular because they just scream with "I had nothing bad to say about this photo, it's actually pretty nice looking, so I'm going to say something so I can say it has a flaw and it's not perfect, instead of admitting the shot was pretty well executed". Centering a shot comes with practice, but grain is more often than not a limit of the camera's sensor, not the photographer himself. Sometimes you just can't expose longer at 100 ISO to get the shot you want so it has to be a little noisy.

The stuff about styles I seriously agree with. I love how many comments on here are about "boring" shots. I get it, the cliche stuff like flowers and sunset shillouttes and yada-yada, but when those are well done, I see no reason to hate on them. Why? Because when they're done right, the 'stage 4' photos like sunsets and flowers and otherwise "crutch scenes", when executed well, are pleasing to look at. Not groundbreaking, but they're nice to look at, and IMHO if I *enjoy* viewing a photo, it's a positive thing in my eyes. I certainly wouldn't fill up my portfolio with generic shots like that, but sometimes I take them for myself and share them with others because I know other people will appreciate them even though they're done to death.
>>
>>1854269
>What's the point? Anything posted will be instantly deemed "shit" by you.
loll i love how you say that, while thats exactly what youre doing. you fucking faggot.
>>
>>1854274

Lastly, I see a lot of comments on here bashing street photography. Seriously, what's up with that? IMHO, it's a pretty cool genre. I particularly like it because you never end up with the same thing twice. No two shots are ever entirely the same, but street photography offers up enough shooting opportunities for a lifetime. Literally. It also kind of forces the photographer to be creative and leave their comfort zone; I'm not hating on studio and landscape shots and such, but you know what I mean.
>>
>>1854275
Yet, homeboy does it all the time. Whatever.
>>
>>1854278
Well, simply put a lot of /p/eople only really see photos on /p/, so they see babbys first street and dislike the genre based on poorly executed street shots, or they're so obsessed with the Robert Capa quote that they forget the crucial work in the quote - enough, as in "If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough". 'Enough' is determined on the context, but a lot of people just turn street into "I can get closer" pissing contest
