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.

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.

It jumped out from my monitor!! Now I got to find this little thing and put it back into the image...

Seriously, it "jumps" out of the monitor with the striking colours and depth.

Thanks everyone :) = this was the first one we found when we went out the back last night - got off one shot before he jumped and we couldn't find him again - but then went down to the pool area and they were everywhere !!! They are common up here (at the moment I'm at Mt Julian just outside of Proserpine - rainforest mountain :) ), so I'm pretty lucky. But they must be as sick of the rain as we are - not one single frog calling tonight - just wind and rain :( They might be hanging around, but I'm not sure I'm up to it tonight- it is pissing down and man it is cold in that wind !!!!

That and the fact that a hell of a lot of trees have been coming down around us and over the driveway - last night we got half way down the very very steep driveway, but had to stop to remove 2 fallen trees with a hand pruning saw !!!!! - we got to the bottom of the driveway, looked at eachother (we were both soaked to the skin), picked up the dog that had followed us down (and helped to remove the trees), turned around and drove back up the very very very steep driveway (in 4wd). LOL

Has been an experience this trip :)
