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.

October Rain
A few flower pics taken at Hunter Valley Gardens last October. The weather was not the best in some ways (overcast and drizzly) so no good wide shots, but the even light and the rain on the flowers added to the close images. All shots taken using the 28-70 f2.8 Nikkor

Re: October Rain
Are they all deliberately centred like that? They seem well-executed but a bit formulaic.
Re: October Rain
 about the composition...Don't they advise to carry a spray of water when you do flower shots.... 
Re: October Rain
I would like to see the second of these in a square crop, Peter.

Re: October Rain
That's a fair call. I've reviewed the entire group I've PPd so far and yes they are all very formulaic  I should know better too. I have real problems cropping and framing shots like these because there is essentially a single subject. I've redone a few - these are different crops of the last two images (with a slightly different PP treatment as well) 
 And here is a new one intentionally uncentred. Is this better? 
Yep - fortunately nature's water bottle did it for me with these. Peter
