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.

.... MVA rollover :twisted:

No serious injuries, just some damaged vehicles and pride. I think the drivers just wanted to be able to talk to the pretty police officer.... or to talk to the firies depending on the team they bat for.... :D :D

nothing overly interesting however comments more than welcome....

Great series of pics mark - I like, in particular, the B&W shot of the guy taking notes and what’s not to like about the policewoman :wink:

I like the guy taking down notes image as well. Maybe too artistic for a newspaper though? I'd like to see that one printed though in the paper. Bit of change from the usual :)

Mark,

I too like the B&W of the guy taking the notes.

As an observation on the MV; that Nissan looks to be heavily overloaded to the point of being top-heavy. I'm not at all surprised that it rolled over; it certainly wouldn't have needed much help to stray from a vertical attitude.

Perhaps I'm drawing a long bow, but what I'm seeing is a classic case of not simply operator error, but some damn good reasons why 4WD operators do need to take some sort of awareness classes so that they can gain an appreciation of the dynamics of the vehicle that they're driving, and how (and how much) different they may be from a common sedan.

And the fashion statement made by the guy's shoes .... :)

chris - thanks chris... and yep... nice looking lady. :)

PiroStitch - i'm a sucker for that shot too... turned out pretty much how i saw it in my head at the time... which is always rewarding. Far too arty for the newspaper but I might print it myself. I have a PJ portfolio which I'm slowly building.

Gary - thanks... very loaded vehicle which looked slightly too much if you ask me. it's too hot still in wonderful Qld to be wearing slacks :)

John - thanks mate. OT... qld drivers don't require P plates as mandatory afaik.

Wacky - thanks ... I'm trying :) I really wanted to ask what all the gear was... but the person seemed a little peeved off... ;)
