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.

This is just for fun. :wink: I don't know what kind of plant this is, but it's growing in front of my house and it has to be the tiniest flower that I've ever seen. It doesn't look like it gets much bigger than this. There are bound to be many of you who know much more about botany than I do, however.

The detail image had my 105mm Macro maxxed out. The yellow part of the flower is less than 0.5mm in size. The green bud is about 5mm.

Steve, this is great.

Sort of like a shot you would see in a science book or something like that. I think it's cool if you are trying to emphasize a certain part of the plant.

Keep it up. ( The camera that is )

Mic. :wink:

Or it can just walk back by itself...


Great shot Steve, love the idea of the detail insert, works very well.
