Til Death Do Us Part

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.

The Gore Hill cemetery in Sydney is very overgrown and unused and makes for a fantastic photo afternoon.

This is just one of a series that I have taken and it is where the spider photo I put up in an earlier thread was photographed.

Chris,

When I first read the topic, my first though was the British comedy show starring Warren Mitchell...........in the 70's. I am showing my age.

Once again outstanding work. The colours just work so well togther.

Were you using the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG lens :?: .


Cheers,
fozzie

No fozzie - it was the 28-105mm which I sold (fool that I am) - it was a very good lens.

Cheers

Chris, I love visiting Cemetries, you can get some great images, and if not, reading the headstones can often be an education.

The only thing with this image (for me) is that the top of the stone is missing....

Do you have many other shots from there? Would love to see them if you do.

Cheers
Deb

Nice shot Chris, almost from a different perspective too? A while back, people were dying to get in there, it was a very grave situation. Sorry :).
