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.

Havn't posted anything here in ages so.... here's something from last weekend... I've not shot moonlit landscapes at night very often and truth be told I wasn't actually intending to this night anyway... We were all away up on the mid north coast of New South wales near Coffs Harbour for a family get together on my wifes side. I liked the look of some potential rocky candidates I found on Google maps and it must have been fate because when I asked my wife where we were staying it turned out to be the closest place to this location - Bonus!! First night after dinner I headed out with the intention of shooting star trails. I don't get into dark skies areas very often so I wanted to capitalise on my opportunities. The skies had been looking good all afternoon (no clouds) so I was hopeful. Unfortunately what I hadn't counted on was the moon was about half full and high in the sky by the time I got here and the clouds were rolling in... Stars were off the menu... Still I was here and never one to waste an opportunity for a shoot I switched to shooting some moonlit landscapes (with a little light painting thrown in)... Seeking Day or Night  Moonlit Greens  Notice that swirl of star movement in this six (6) minute exposure - this gave me all sorts of ideas...

Excellent photographs. It must have taken quite a lot of time to take them.
The light in them gives them a somewhat eerie feel. I like the first one best.

the last is cool, very cliché but still cool, it's a cool concept when the sky is darker.
The second last one is probably the strongest for me, i reckon even just a hours worth of trails (even with the moon) would have made this a cracker. The lines of the cloud and rock really sing.

Yes, it is playing in my mind reminding me of "ET calling home"
