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.

All excellent mate. I would like to have seen #3 without the vignette.

I'm wondering why the vignettes? IMHO, they add nothing to some great images.

I like all your photos. They have good colours and are well framed. However, vignetting and other effects some times take away from the pictures rather than enhancing them. I am afraid to say that your pictures are better off without the vignettes; they are good on their own right.

Lovely Photographs, I agree about the vignette. The southern ocean is freezing to me all year around which explains why we head north every year to enjoy the warmer ocean!

I disagree with the posts on vignettes in that, whilst your are overdone and are distracting....the trick is to add the vignette and then back it off so that it is barely perceptible....but still there. It is a very fine balance to achieve and should always be underdone rather than overdone....but it is an effective tool for holding the eye in the centre of the image space.
Regards

Love your shots, first is my pick, the use of the slow shutter helps make this a great image. In regards to the vignetting, there are no rules in the world of photography, do what you think looks good and make the image your own, not what someone else says it should be! That's the only way photography has ever progressed
