Isolation in Darling Harbour

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.

Isolation in Darling Harbour

Postby PiroStitch on Tue May 11, 2010 10:10 pm

I took a short stroll in Darling Harbour during my weekend in Sydney and took a few photos of the locals enjoying a lazy public holiday afternoon in the sun. My main goal was to isolate a subject within the environment, which fortunately was fairly easy to achieve given it was a public holiday.

And this last one for good measure. Not really isolation but I just loved how the light fell exactly in the right spots.

The series didn't just focus on isolation, but had others thrown into the mix.

I agree with you about the light being in the right places in #4 - it's a pleasure to look at this image.

I think images #1 and #2 would suit the theme of Isolation a little better with the other people being cropped away; I think #1 is a lovely capture and I like the bw conversion in all four.
Cheers
