The perils of young ladies and Nikon accessories

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.

Great shots Vic. Everything perfect. Could Nikon happiness replace diamonds as a girl's best friend? Not sure that it would be any cheaper, however.

Haven't you heard?

Diamonds have been banned by the PC police because they're small and present a potential swallowing hazard.

Nikon boxes present no such hazard, and have a similar worth. Pretty soon we'll be seeing all the A-list women at balls and social gatherings wearing strings of Nikon boxes around their necks.

Oh yes, great work Vic. What a gorgeous smile.

G'day,
The shot of your daughter smiling is a cracker...

I see the shot of your second love (the Nikon bxes) is listed first... Freudian? ;-)

Cheers,
Mudder.

Sensational lighting! Give great definition and the skin tones are nice!

I have to get me some more of those Nikon boxes to play with ;)

"yes dear... I'm just buying another box for isabelle to play with" ;)

thanks all. This is an excellent Xmas ploy that all men with young children could try...just say to the wife when she gives "that" look when you turn up with yet another Nikon accessory "...and anyway, I am told that the Nikon boxes make great toys for children...?" Now, how to put a similar spin on a new tripod?
