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.

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.

well, here are my attempts from the weekend, tonight was the first chance I got to take a look at the pictures  I did not deal well with the scenery images with the grey cloudy sky and all. Being Botanical Gardens I thought some flower images, as cliche as they are, might be in order. Also that darn swan would not pose for me  All taken with the 55mm micro #1 Natures Fireworks?  #2 Cliche flower shot - Note: gary, if you read this I took your advice and went with ~f6 as you suggested from a previous image - (thanks for the advice)  #3 Cross Section flower - I promise I did not touch this flower! it was like it when I got there!  #4 If that swan is not gonna pose for me he/she is gonna be OOF

Nice work mate,
The first one, with the right crop could be called the southern cross.
I like no.3, nice and sharp. Maybe clone out the little red bits on the right.
I've got a very similar shot to your last one but I didn't get the flowers sharp enough.

#3 is a corker!!!!
If you’re alone with your friend in the woods and a tiger’s chasing you, you don’t have to be faster than the tiger, you have to be faster than your friend.

Yep #3 for me as well Gerry. They are all nice but the magnolia stands out. Are you sure there was no manipulation?

#1 and #3 are gorgeous! #1 especially, so greens are so vibrant and the flowers are so detailed and clear
