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.

When I was done with shooting waterfalls at Hazelbrook I switched to my Tamron 90mm macro lens and went in search for some likely subjects. I stopped at this large moss covered log looking to shoot the mini forest which was growing on the side of the log (with all manner of tiny delicate moss, fern like plants and other greenery) It was very bright with harsh direct sunlight streaming from above so I setup my tri-grip diffuser to provide a pool of soft glowing light above a moss covered area. I was framing up a spread of miniature forest when this fantastic colourful snail wandered into my view. It has this almost translucent orange shell with interesting swirls and patterns and was pretty tiny (the shell is smaller than my little finger nail). I framed various shots as it wandered through my mini forest... Suggestions, recommendations, etc always welcomed...

They are just pure magic! And technically lovely. You are a gifted photographer.
Can anyone identify the snail? Can you send a copy to the Australian Museum and ask if the snail can be identified? Just in case it's a new or unknown species.
Regards

Yes. That's Monsieur S Cargo. I remember having him for lunch a couple of years back. Rodney, What Matt says: these are wonderful images, displaying great use of the light, as well as great composition. You did very well, and especially so considering the pace at which these guys can move. I'll bet the motor drive was really humming. g.
