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.

Rob,

If you look at the size of the vegetation up there I think a person might be so miniscule that they'd be easily mistaken for a dustbunny.

Not to say that there are any dustbunnies, mind.

Cheers,

Not quite dustbunnies, but almost. Here's a photo of the left-hand peak (taken a month ago) and those bushes down the bottom are probably close to 2m high.

Of course, if someone DID walk on the top they'd probably get lynched by other visitors and/or charged by rangers with defacing the formation...

Dingo, your image strikes me as maybe a bit too yellow. The rocks go through all sorts of colours as dusk arrives, but surely the vegetation doesn't change quite that much? ;)
It's a nice image regardless!

Thanks Guys

As Dave said there shouldn't be anyone walking at the top but while I was there there were! I went through some of my files and didn't see them in the pics.

Dave, it does look quite yellow but I was fortunate and unfortunate at the time. There were think clouds coming in from behind with the sun peeking in and out. The clouds never eventuated like I would have liked but the differnces in colors were very dramatic!
