Going home :)

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.

Been out in the field again, and was waiting for Damo to come back from checking his trap line so we could head out to do some spotlighting ... so whacked the old tokina wide angle on (very very very old, purely manual), and balanced the camera on the back of the ute, and this was the result :)
A combination of 2 exposures (well, one shot, 2 expsosures after I converted them from RAW files) ...
not tooo bad considering how I did it LOL.
But what a great place to do work :) :) :)

Nice Rel, but a pity about the telephone lines. :wink:

I don't mind the telephone/electric wires cause I think they add to the line of the road taking you into the image... it looks gorgeous Rel.. loads of colour and detail here also.. I can hardly believe that you did it without a tripod.. I'm thinking you should frame this one! :)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)

I think it a lovely shot with gorgeous colours and adequate sharpness. The wires and poles just add that touch of civilization. If it is what you saw and felt; it is well recorded!

Lovely light, and colour :)

I would consider rotating it slightly anti-clockwise - I'm feeling myself falling off the edge a little (and I'm not entirely sure it's the picture doing it, just humour me ;) ).

Thanks everyone - and yep, definitely LOVE our job ;)
Sheepie - this hopefully will stop you from falling over the edge :) (just realised that the colours didn't come through as vividly in the first post :? ... this is more like what I saw )
