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.

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.

Thoughts - likes, dislikes? This one is a lazy 231 seconds taken just over 30 minutes before sunrise - we had a very thick heavy band of cloud on the horizon which makes it hard to distinguish where the sea ends and the sky begins but also meant a spectacular sunrise was unlikely. It was so dark on my side of the scene I knew I had to do a little light painting fill using a small zoomable LED torch on this side mostly on the sculpture but also on the foreground stones... Blowing Bubbles in the Sky  Around sunrise I moved further up the hill above the sculpture to try some longer length views - this one just before sunrise was about as colourful as the actual sunrise itself got Raspberries at Dawn  By this stage I was having real trouble with lots of condensation buildup on my filters (Circular Polariser and Graduated ND) which required frequent mopping to avoid having hazy contrastless images Just after sunrise as the sun got up into the cloud layer on the horizon we got a fabulous second chance rise and the colour storm in the sky really started to happen so I stayed where I was and continues with compositions with the Bubble No:5 sculpture Blowing on the Fire  and then ten minutes after sunrise the sun finally broke through above the heavy cloudbank for a spectacular second rise Second Sun  D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

I think I like the first composition from the lower viewpoint because makes better use of the leading lines. That particular sculpture does not do much for me but the sky certainly looks good.

#1 is my favourite. Bouncing that blood red off the blue sky is appealing. Amazing how the atmospherics can change a picture.

I like the first composition and the last sky.
I like nothing about the sculpture.
