Pedestrians

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.

This image evokes the thoughts of patience versus haste and living versus silently witnessing life pass by. Being European, I found the position of the statue somewhat odd for we normally place this kind of adornments in traffic roundabouts. I took this image last Monday as I went for a walk in the Brisbane CBD. I also realised later I should have fitted the lens with a polarising filter, but I didn't.

For some reason that I don't understand sometimes 800 pixels wide fits and another time, like this one, it cuts the image on the right. Is there some code to prevent this from happening?

Zafra, no code at this end. If you look at your original image, http://www.members.optusnet.com.au/~zaf ... ue_800.jpg , they look similar to me.

Thank you Glen, but on this end the pedestrian crossing the street is missing and yet on the website is there. I've just unistalled the video card driver and re-installed it again, but it is the same. The curious thing is that the maximun it displays is 1024 pixels wide. I am totally confunded and yet this morning at work I was able to see the complete images so it must be my display then. Like now I cannot see the avatar pics :?: :?:

You need to change your monitor resolution settings... I had the same problem... *nods*...

and this is an interesting statue Zafra.. can't say that I have seen it around.. where in Brisbane is it? (yeah I obviously never get into the city)... I like the sky in this shot too... you were lucky to get out on a sunny day as they seem few and far between lately don't they?.. :)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)
