What do photographers do at a body art carnivale?

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.

What do photographers do at a body art carnivale?

It is almost as much fun to watch the photographers & artists at work than to hunt the elusive winning image. Here are a few of the preliminary action during the early stages of the Eumundi Body Art Carnivale held last Sunday. There were a LOT more photographers there this year and some of them had VERY big cards in their cameras judging by the machine gun techniques employed by them.

No 1 - I originally asked if I could be a painter in the finger painting division, but was politely told that there was no such class. (Damn!) ...and when I got there, what did I see.....

No.2 - I had to chuckle at this scene. The lass at left looks as if she has lost her audience as something to the right takes all of the attention.

Image

No.3 - Our own Oneputt at right contemplating his next composition. John.... I say, John, you are supposed to have the camera in front of your face mate! (Will somebody please wipe his chin for him?)

All in all a very busy and productive day. Organisers tried hard and learned a few more things to make it better next year. The way it is shaping up, they may have to limit entries!
