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.

Well when I was out search for the mother of all birds, the Wedge Tail Eagle I decided to go to Glenmore which is where Embi sugested. My was I suprised at how much it reminded me of being in the UK, kind of like the Peak District but not as green. I think the area could do with a good dump of rain to turn all the grass green. Still quite dry out that region.
Anyway the shot was taken handheld and was cromprised of a total of about 18 shots but I only used 14 here as the right 4 were just of a tree. Who needs a Gitzo, Markins M-20 head and RSS Sliding Rails 
Btw, later on I'll do another version merging with two exposures one for the clouds and one for the ground. I measured the exposure for the middle hills and set it all up using matrix metering but I guess the camera got slightly fooled. Either that or the sun was more covered when I metered.
Total image size 15000x3000.

Hi Darryl: for this type of shot, try a gradual ND to eccentuate the sky better. Otherwise the shot lacks theme focus given the blown out clouds.
On second thought, I reckon a IR filter will produce very interesting results.

Yep already know this but I don't have a Cokin filter system. Nor am I willing to spend out the money on one at this stage :0
I'll just put it through Photomatix Pro.
