Natures Revenge

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.

Well the rain has well and truly set in and now we have high winds to go with it, so combine that with a high tide and Semaphore jetty gets smashed and Port Adelaide gets flooded... Just love this wild weather.

Semaphore jetty is lower than the rest along the metro coast, so it cops a hiding - time for some new boards

The second shot with the better wave action is great. Looks good in b&w too.

I was about to say, you must be nuts to walk out there with that going on! plus..you would get wet :wink:

The second one is a very nice picture and as mentioned great one for BW conversion.

The last makes a pleasant abstract and imo, thats always hard to do! :up:

Big V - you have excelled again, but #2 is the stand out :)

Port Adelaide & Enfield council workers have been active all day cleaning up the Port, where the 'King Tide' made it into Nile Street again via the drain system, leaving debris on the footpath when I arrived at work this morning :(

There I was rugged up and warm inside - no wonder I never get the great shots - I especially like 1 & 2 and the B?w really enhances the shot
