I Have seen the light

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.

Nice shots VRBoy.

I agree the flare in the first definitely adds to the picture for me and I like the overall composition.

However, it looks like you were pointing the camera very slightly to the left of centre, which has spoilt it a little for me. Its meant that the crosses arent quite level and the curvature of the WA lens isnt equal on both sides and the poles on the ground are out of line. I wonder if you can crop it and straighten it without losing the look of the flare on the right hand side??

The second one is very well exposed and I like the composition. Only nit about the second one is that you have chopped the very top of the window off, which makes it feel unfinished.

Cheers
Rob.
Smile; it makes people wonder what you have been up to.

Looks a lot like the Church at the Hunter Valley Gardens.

Visited there recently during the floriade and was suitably impressed

Lovely spot and well worth a visit...If you find a genuine Nikon rubber eyecup its mine

It is the church there, no sorry didnt stumble over the Nikon rubber eyecup its mine, maybe you should asked God if he saw it, I asked him for a wallet I lost once and it was returned to me by a total stranger weeks later.
