Maximeet walk

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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Enjoyed the company but came back almost empty handed - photographically speaking

Nice PP to boost an otherwise ordinary image.. wider angle would have been better...

Funny you should say that, this is a heavily cropped photo taken with a 10-20 lens so it was quite wide to start with but I thought that the people were a bit small in the frame.

Phillip, that's an excellent image. The soft white lighting coming thru the treetops makes it feel so soft and nostalgic in some sense. It's definitely very flatting to one day look back and recall the walk being so breathtakingly dreamy... This is among the top 5 B&W photos I have ever seen... and not because my butt's in it either.

Wow! Great shot Phillip! Im always amazed, and always inspired by people on this forum that take a picture from something that may seem trivial or uninteresting (to me) at the time and then make it into something notable and attach an emotion to it making it into a fantastic image.

Great shot Phillip! Congrats! :-)
