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.

The second of my favourites from this weekends workshop...

I highly recommend the other Tom Putt workshops as this one was fan-bloody-tastic.

I see no tall ship? Or jumping trout?
Seriously....a powerful seascape/skyscape. Get out there and keep them coming.

Zang, those clouds look like they're skimming your head. I also like the way they look like they are collectively bending as they travel off to the horizon. You've nailed the ratio of sky water foreground (not to much of any of them). Spectacular pic.

Sigh, and this is the sort of photo I was trying to take at Tower Hill with my F80. I had dramatic cloud formations with the sun beaming through them, with Tower Hill in the shot. Unfortunately they all sucked. Too dark, grainy. Was using a rock as a makeshift tripod but I must of metered incorrectly.

This time I plan to go down with the right kit.

Tremendous landscape Deano :D

Kipper, you will probably find the Gitzo a step up from a rock :wink:

Absolutely stunning capture of a very dramatic sunset.

However the landscape in the foreground doesn't really add to the photograph at all. It's a shame you couldn't have capture the large and small landmass jutting out of the ocean (I've also shot at this spot before, nice spot :) ) with this sunset. That would have made an awesome photo!

Sorry if it sounds very critical. :cry:
