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.

I have to agree Dan, probably the tightest set of images you've posted, you've really been improving and pushing your boundaries, great stuff man!

Hard pressed to pick a favourite, but I'd say its between 1 and 2.

Ditto :) Terrific work Dan. Your PP'ing is well suited to the images and really enhances them. Your talent is truly maturing into a fine gift. Beautiful.
On second look at #2 one of my favs here I noticed a little prickly hairs on the back of the thighs. It may sound picky but for such a classy image removing them would justly refine an already great piece of work.

They're the tassels from her dress, I'd hate to think she's that hairy ;-)

I see what you are saying. I know i'm getting old not blind :) I mean the hairs half way down the thighs. I suppose the gorgeous backlight makes them a little too prominent for me. Anyhow I might be 'splitting hairs' here the image is terrific. I know dan is always striving for the best so it was my clumsy contribution towards that end:wink:

Firstly - Amazing pics.....

There is both. On *Her* right leg about 1/2 way down there are a few hairs. On her left leg, the tassels make the noticeable edges to her leg line....

However, I doubt they would be noticed on a print.....
