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.

With all of the wind a rain recently huge amounts of bark and leaves had come down from the large gum trees and literally filled the gutters in the street. I'd been eyeing the piles of stuff for days thinking it might make an interesting subject for some close up photography and I'd better get there before the street sweeper came through and destroyed my chance... So on a recent morning I got out there with my trusty Tamron 90mm macro lens (which I hadn't taken for a spin for a while) and took the following images handheld lying down in the street (hoping not to get run over by traffic - we have a pretty quiet street so I wasn't all that concerned  ). As always I'd be happy for any feedback, comments or critique... For the first I know it looks like I planned this but it was a happy coincidence that that insect came and landed on the leaves I was just about to photograph.  NIKON D90 + 90.0 mm f/2.8 @ 90 mm, 1/100 sec at f / 13, ISO 200 For the second I loved the colours, textures and twists of these old drying leaves.  NIKON D90 + 90.0 mm f/2.8 @ 90 mm, 1/60 sec at f / 16, ISO 200 D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

Very natural colours and a point of view that we don' normally see. It's great that you have gone to the trouble to take these and post them. That 90mm is a classic and should be worked hard!

Nice perpective. I prefer the first one. It seems more
together because it has a clear subject that stands out.
