A few long shots from today

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

The head-on shot of the jetboat is impressive - what lens? Is the any PP - it's so sharp!

Thanks

Great, were you on another boat? Doubt you could operate your camera while in a boat like that.

As always Matt, excellent quality photos.

However, I question to title of the boat photos. "Jetski"?? Isn't that one of those things that one person sits on and terrorises families and children and other innocent beach goers?

I think the big mo-fo you have shot is a Jet Boat.

Pedantics aside, the first shot in particular is great.

Onyx, your sig is changing every five minutes!!!

My favourite is still "I want a girl whose name doesn't end with jpg" That one is gold.

Nice..

Postby beetleboy on Wed Dec 29, 2004 10:04 pm

I always enjoy your pics Matt..

Out of this lot I quite like the juxtaposition of the old and new buildings. I also like the word juxtaposition! Reminds me of Year 12 English Studies!
