Argentina - Lakes district

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.

This is an amazing place - centred around San Carlos de Bariloche and in the foothills of the Andes.


This first one's an accidental pano. Created from 3 images NOT taken consecutively. Sometimes you can be lucky.

This is a 12 shot pano

I like them all, particularly #1 with the foreground colour on each side framing the scene. Pretty region.

These are all wonderful, I love #2, a tad bit more contrast to cut through the haze will make it even better.

Me too - shows what can be done these days. All 3 source images were taken from the same vantage point and focal length over a 4 minute period. They were different EV as well and in between I'd recomposed and taken a completely different shot 90 degrees to the images either side. Additionally these were 3 landscape images whereas I shoot planned panos portrait orientation.

I can't provide much critique other than "WOW!".

Very nice indeed Peter, looked like the weather gods were in your favour, unlike when I was there back in '93! :D
Those stiched panos should come up nicely printed WIDE.
