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.

Caught in the Rain

Bit embarrassed by this one. Its actually a film shot, but I don't have a scanner, so I reshot the photograph using the DSLR. I stuffed that up by forgetting it was set to ISO 1600 so a crap reproduction was made even worse by having the wrong ISO. Needless to say, the film prints are significantly better and are far more engaging.

Man seeing good 'ol photos captured on black and white film brings me back to the days of the dark room.

Nonetheless, considering the step you took to get the photo uploaded, nice photo.

It is a shame you don't have a scanner, but nevertheless I would have the negative scanned at the bes/highest possible resolution and keep a digital image of it because it is a great shot.
