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.

Literally... I had an overnight stay at Taronga Zoo last night (as part of a school excursion). One of the activities we had was a late night zoo safari where we walk around the zoo in the dark. Since many of the animals are sleeping or are nocturnal we can't have any lights, nor are we allowed to use flash photography because it can blind the animals. So the guides carry these red (almost look like IR) torches which emit a relatively weak red glow. Photography in almost absolute darkness is interesting to say the least but I took my camera and new 85/1.8G along just in case. At the Tiger enclosure there were two tigers lying in the bamboo very very (less than 30cm) from the glass so when the kids walked up in the dark and started peering through the glass panels into the pitch black enclosure to see if they could find any animals they got quite a surprise when the red glow started to make out these two tigers only a foot away from their faces. Here I've just about tested out the limits of my D7000 with this shot at ISO 6400 1/60th sec @ f/1.8. I had the lens hood hard up against the glass and our guide was kind enough to angle their red light closely towards the tiger to give me as much light as possible. The colouring and crop here is straight out of camera with just a few minor post processing adjustments.
