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.

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.

Beach and waterfall on the weekend

Hi,

tried out my CPL over the weekend. I was in South West Rocks and the clouds were very interesting. Got a couple shots, one with more beach then the other, be interested in comments.

It must have been a weekend of firsts ;-). Tried my first waterfall. The Watui falls can be spectacular when full, but still very nice on the weekend.

Could not quite seem to get my colours quite right with P, will have to keep getting used to PP. Any way, comments welcomed.

All shots taken with D70s with the 18-70mm kit lens.

Cheers,

Radar

The first of the two beach shots works better for me as I find it more balanced and the sweeping curve of water leads into the shot nicely. Plus the inclusion of the person walking along the beach really strengthens the image.
