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.

Re: Critique
Hi Damien, and welcome.
Housekeeping, first: Please place a meaningful location into your profile. If you check the message on the Portal Page, you would see that "Melbourne" is not acceptable. The B&W conversion on the first is lacking ... something. Where are the blacks? They all seem to have retreated somewhere.  In both images, you have broken one of the traditional rules of composition, in that you have your subjects looking, or walking, out of the images. That may be exactly what you wanted, or the concept may be entirely foreign to you. But I think that, in particular, the second image suffers greatly from this. You have great contrast, a wonderful concept, and I suspect it would be all the stronger an image were the feet seen to be heading into the image. As it is, in both images, the composition tends to lead the eyes out of the image, and IMHO they suffer as a result. g.

Re: Critique
Hi Damien - I actually like the composition of exiting the frame. I think it works. My only suggestion would be that perhaps there is some dead space at the top of the first and the bottom of the second. A tighter crop in these regions may tighten them up. I like nonetheless.
