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.

Not often I find myself in the city at this time of evening with my camera but I'll definitely make an effort to do it again. A beautiful Brisbane dusk looking across to the CBD from the Kangaroo Point cliffs.

Your comments and advice are always welcome.

This is Kangaroo Point Lookout, in Brisbane, right? I have some similar shots from New Years 2004-05.

Looks good. the exposure seems a bit long to me though.

I like the shot, but think something needs to be done about the giant black hole middle left. Maybe trim the bottom a bit more.

I keep telling them they should rip up those Botanical Gardens and build more office towers!

No, good point Peter and you're absolutely right. I'll give it a trim tomorrow after a good night's sleep. Not seeing things too straight tonight.. :roll:

only when I look at pix's like yours and other Qld members...... The light over here is so flat compared to Australia, but great for shooting cars and buildings, now that I have my new toys who knows.......I am back to chasing bumble bees for a start......you just never know.......but I just love spending time with my son who I do not see a lot, as he has been OS for quite a number of years
