    A beer brewing photo story (sorry for the big post)

    Alright, I just shot my first session at Big Sky Brewing as a photo story for my photo j class. I am posting some shots that I like so far. I have somewhat of an order, but feel free to re-arrange. Some shots are redundant, so if you'd like, choose which you like better. Any input as to what else is needed? I am planning at least one more trip back to brewery. I think I need some shots from the taproom of people enjoying the beer. Any other ideas?

    Very nice... I like the top photo the best. It presents the most information and also includes some neat blurring.

    I think what you need here is more color and probably also more light. Some sort of color-enhancing filter or something. More contrast would also help. for example, on the bottom shot, which is simple too hazy (high Gamma?).

    I would definitely include a shot of them boozing it up at the end! That sounds excelllant to me (I'm watching Football as I type), and maybe a shot of a mug with some foam in a warm setting (some reds and yellows). This might be best if in a fine setting, looking very refined. Factory settings are OK but not as the final product shots.

    Congrats on posting a very creative story. We could use more of these, maybe with subjects like boot camp, lumberyards, samon fishing, etc. The final shots should be the final, refined product (imho)...
