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 crossed these guys off my list :shock: , not only the excessive amount of crap aft of the wheel wells but the visible trail of smoke from both engines had me running for cover! The picture does not do it justice, living near the airport I see alot of planes take off and this one was worse than the old freight DC10's. :shock:

Also included a few extra recent ones of much nicer planes.

The front landing gear of the last image is funny. Looks like a lego mini fig stuck and looking down yelling out "Help me" :mrgreen:

haha oddly enough, someone at work said my mind works in mysterious ways. My advice to her was to not think too much about it as it'll probably send her to the looney bin. I can't even figure out how my mind works at times.
