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.

Rich

This is very good and works for me, so I'd say the answer to your question is NO

The tonings in this work really well.

While I'm here I have to say your Challenge 4 entry was my fave by far so I thank you for the opportunity to view it.

Yes and No. The three chairs are not the same. See the backs of the chairs. It misses out on symmetry in that case. Its a bit dark and I wonder if a play with PS would bring out more contrast that would add to the photo. I like the idea and the perspective but am unsure about the purple choice of colouring.

On the theme of three, there was a fellow at the bank called Trebilcock, and was always known as Thrice Blessed.

Well Greg, that's one way to get your 2000 posts up, since you've told us that before maybe we should reset the counter back. :wink:
Congratulations anyway. :)

thanks guys, I really thought maybe I'd lost it on this one

I hadn't even realized the leftmost chair was different. . . Now I can't decide if that adds or detracts from the photo :)
