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.

Hi guys,
I set myself a task of photographing a series of the opera house in new views and perspectives. I'm a newbie to Aus so its something I photograph every time I pass it but I wanted something different. Also the challenge 3 helped me pick the angles.
I would appreciate your comments on these.
 OperaHouse/ Opera-house-detail2.jpg" alt="Image" />
OperaHouse/ Opera-house-detail3.jpg" alt="Image" />
OperaHouse/ Opera-house-detail4.jpg" alt="Image" />
OperaHouse/ Opera-house-detail5.jpg" alt="Image" />
OperaHouse/ Opera-house-detail6.jpg" alt="Image" />
All images taken with the kit lens and all have the levels tweaked in PS.
Cheers

Technically and personally I could find no fault with these photos. What I will say is that I have lived with this object for the past 32 years and have not seen the angles that you have portrayed before - new eye - a new perspective - well done I like them

I like the fourth one... The geometric shapes of the tiles is ofset nicely by the organic shape of the cloud... very nice

Refreshing angles and composition.
Unfortunately, a few of the pix have hot spots (hard to avoid, I know) which detract from them.

Like MHD #4 does it for me for pretty much the same reason. I'm amazed you can get that close with the kit lens. Is this a crop?

Thanks guys,
None of them have been cropped. As I say, the only enhancement has been with the levels.
#4 I was standing right next to it leaning on it looking up. My favourite is #5. If only there had been clouds in the scene it would have been a winner.
Thank you for your compliments on these. I'm going to use these then as the springboard for the "Different Perspective" challenge.
Cheers
Matt

when i say none of them have been cropped, by that I mean that they arent a smaller section from a larger perspective. they have been trimmed to get rid of some distractions.

Neither can I, although I could earlier today at work. Maybe a server is napping

Sorry dudes, not sure what's happened there. They are up again now.
I should have kept some of these back so that i could enter them into the challenge. But at least it makes you take more pictures which is what its all about.
