Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #191
September 11th, 2008 I think we can all agree that this tight shot of these dated cupboards does nothing to show us the layout of the kitchen. From the looks of the photo, the kitchen looks large enough to be adequately photographed without a wide-angle lens, so all that is needed here is to standContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #191”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #190
September 10th, 2008 Not that it’s a horrible shot per se, but it was one of only three pictures on the listing, two of which were of the fireplace. Not exactly what I’d call showcasing a listing! See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres – Sooke Real Estate Professional Your comments are welcomed andContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #190”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #189
September 9th, 2008 Overall, this photo falls victim to poor composition. It’s just not a good angle to show viewers the kitchen. That black object in the foreground distracts the eye and the differing directions of the counter-tops is also distracting. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres – Sooke Real Estate Professional YourContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #189”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #188
September 8th, 2008 This REALTOR® must be busy. He or she was in such a hurry to shoot the pictures for this new listing that nearly every one was crooked, cluttered, and poorly composed. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres – Sooke Real Estate Professional Your comments are welcomed and encouraged! Just useContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #188”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #187
September 7th, 2008 Too busy and too close is the problem here. It’s hard for the viewer to get an idea of the size and shape of this room. A better choice would be to de-clutter it a little, stand back, and also shoot at more of an angle to give some depth perception toContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #187”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #186
September 6th, 2008 Well first of all we have a direct violation of Ayres Directive #1 – A bathroom shot with a non-wide-angle lens. Anyone can see that there’s just no room in the frame to cram in an entire bathroom. Also, are those beer bottles on the tub?! See all the usual suspects here.Continue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #186”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #185
September 5th, 2008 This dark and dreary image could have been improved greatly simply by standing in the opposite corner, and shooting in the same direction as that beautiful natural light coming in the windows. Shooting towards it fools your camera into thinking the scene is brighter than it actually is, resulting in an underexposedContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #185”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #184
September 4th, 2008 This place is SO CLOSE to the water, that you can feel the motion of the ocean, and it’s hard to photograph the horizon straightly. At least the REALTOR® was consistent – all of the pictures on this listing were tilted this way. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres –Continue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #184”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #183
September 3rd, 2008 A rather uninteresting shot of a white-walled foyer. It’s a neat looking door, to be sure, but stand back, use a wide-angle lens, and capture the whole room to show the buyers what it’s all about. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres – Sooke Real Estate Professional Your comments areContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #183”
