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.

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.

These are great. I especially like #1.

I've seen the place in the last pic on rock climbing forums a few times.

True, but I have done nearly 200km/h on the Breeza in an SLK230 :wink:

Hi Norwest,

I love your images.
I used to go to Sunday School ( I thInk, that ist was is was called some aeons ago) - it was very much like the corrugated iron church that you have shown - the one we went to.
Back then it happened to be with Pastor Zinbauer in Adelaide.
He picked us up in what must have been a Ford T4 or something like that.
This was in 1960 - it was weired - it also shows my age - a currugated iron church, coming from Europe it was so weired.

Thanks for showing,
CD

My pick is the simple shot of the door, its amazing how such a simple subject matter, whilst done over and over seems to always be so appealing, must be something to do with pyscohology and all that...but hey I really like the door, contrasting concepts, a shed style building and church nice... :up:

Sawn rocks, my first thought when I saw those and had a camera was 'how the hell do i fit it all in'!! Its very hard to capture something so large.. I was up there last year and loved Narrabri great place. fyi my sawn rocks

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.

Agree re the door. It may be the the curiosity prevalent in human nature that makes us wonder what's on the other side.
