Harvest..... next years headache

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.

Mmmmm... I can smell the Pinot Gris from here...

I like the sense of motion that you have here with just the right shutter speed to show the movement of the grapes... :)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)

Lovely - shame about the flat light but I like the composition/focus on the product.

........ Thanks,...... the joys of shooting on the run, and in the rain, looking out for HUGE spiders between the rows if the harvester has not been down the row you are shooting from, spider web is a bitch to get off your gear, also look out for the odd thing that crawls as well, things jumping on you because you are there, the joys of location Photography, and to add insult to injury, by the time various people have a play and the images get printed, they will look a lot different than they do here....... pity, as I like the flat look for these...... and I would not have it any other way........ too old to change
