Some D70 pics from today

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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Look great Matt. The forklift image reminds me of your VW image. Is the "things" shot how they came out before post processing?

I love these industrial shots. Particuarly enjoyed how you seemed to be able to capture the workers without distracting them from their job. It seemed almost like you weren't there. Do you know them and how did you get into this factory.

Great to see what the d70 can do on 1600 iso. Perfectly acceptable noise I thought.

I've got tickets to Sydney Open in a couple of weeks and one of the tours I'm doing is of the old Everleigh Rail Yards. I can't wait to get some 'industrial' shots myself.

Thanks for the pics
Regards

Thanks for the comments. I go to this foundry fairly often and can move around freely. I used the kit lens...(heavens forbid!) I tend to just "hang around" and I shoot very quickly. I nearly always shoot candidly. I have made some A3 prints...but I put them through "NOISEWARE" and just knocked out a little of the noise. The images I have posted have not been through this routine. I shot RAW but in future I will go back to shooting JPG's because RAW is too much of a hassel and offers not much extra.

Things and Iron are fab - very abstract - maybe an idea for a future comp!

Strangely, in the foundry but very quiet, no noise, strike? No! I saw people are working!!!!!!! :lol:

ISO1600, noise is not noticeable with D70 + kit lens, it's great stuff!!!

Once again, Matt, you have done a fabulous shooting in the foundry and your images brought me back to my memory22 year ago, at the time which I was working at Boeing Field in Seatle, US. not look like the foundry but there are many same characters.
