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.

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.

You know we have slightly rainy days here in Sydney now. He-he-he... :lol:
Not a good time for shooting anything outdoor except probably waterfalls as they are just full of water. Two weeks ago I did a trip to Illawarra region. Along the Illawarra Highway you can find four or even five waterfalls. Here are the three of them.

I like the third- just a little different with the double fall. It's hard to make such large vistas inviting and not distant but I think you have done a good job here. Good colours as well although the first looks a shade dark on my monitor.

I checked out your website and you have some absolutley brilliant waterfall shots- I esp like the last two at Wentworth Falls.

I really like the first one with the big rocks where the water hits. I think the lookout up the top gives a good sense of scale.

I'm probably biased too given that I'm almost a local :)

Thanks for sharing

Nice images, you've done well there. Fitzroy falls is my favourite.
