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.

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.

Another week, another lovely church  Continuing my theme of visiting interesting and beautiful buildings here in the city I took a trip to St James' Church, King Street. Completed in 1822, as part of the major construction programme initiated by Governor Lachlan Macquarie, St James' is now the oldest existing church building in Sydney. As with my visit to St Andrews Cathedral the people here were extremely friendly and helpful, they allowed me to take photographs all over the place and even unlocked the doors to upstairs for me so I could take some shots from up high. As before I used my new tripod (and I'm really starting to appreciate having this new ballhead with friction control for finer more manageable micro adjustments) and shot three (or four or five) exposure bracketed sequences to later post process using HDR techniques if necessary. Like most of these buildings they are relatively dark inside but with super bright highlights where the windows are. C&C Welcomed... Golden Inner Sanctum  NIKON D7000 + 8.0-16.0 mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 8 mm, 2 sec at f/11, ISO 100 Curve  NIKON D7000 + 8.0-16.0 mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 8 mm, 1 sec at f/11, ISO 100 Sky of Diamonds  NIKON D7000 + 8.0-16.0 mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 8 mm, 1.3 sec at f/11, ISO 100 Glow  NIKON D7000 + 8.0-16.0 mm f/4.5-5.6 @ 8 mm, 1 sec at f/11, ISO 100 D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

All good - the girls and I had a lot of fun (even when I dragged them all over the place to take photos - they were very patient with me )... I'll post something up for the trip soon...

Nice work Rodney.
You may want to consider whether the church wants to run these pictures on their online gallery?

Yep thanks Suren - I contacted St Andrews Cathedral after that shoot and emailed them some images with the offer to supply them with whatever hires ones they wanted - which they were very happy with so I burnt a CD with the lot and took it over and chatted with them for a while one day (they actually needed some images for some stuff they were doing so they were very pleased). I did the same for St James although I only emailed them on the weekend so havn't had a response yet.
