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.

It was great to catch up with all you guys (and gal) - a very enjoyable evening eating, talking and shooting - even Cam's 1000mm+ Nikon J1  and only wish I'd gotten more time to try out the D800  Comments and suggestions welcome... Pre Sunset with 10 Stop ND and a 0.9 GND filters pointing towards the setting sun  During sunset pointing away from the sun (towards the Opera House and the coathanger) again with 10 Stop ND and a 0.9 GND filters - a three and a half minute exposure to get some interesting water and sky effects - my favourite shot of the evening  Which unfortunately meant I missed most of sunset in the other direction - here's the trailing edge  and lastly back towards Luna Park, SHB and SOH for the obligatory twilight long exposure  D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

#2 I would brighten the top half by half a stop and mark it to keep...  The creamy tones and nice combined with the pastel colors and the familiar sight. The rest is meh. I am not too excited about the inclusion of the stoney pavement which has icky texture and clashes.

lol, for lack of a technical term Nice shots Rodney, i like the second one, buts no surprise - i think the slightly wider composition works well here but on the flip side the eye does not know whether to concentrate on the sky or the foreground, possibly cropping some sky would balance it out more.

Yes but it's making me want the "real" BigStopper now...  surenj wrote:#2 I would brighten the top half by half a stop and mark it to keep... The creamy tones and nice combined with the pastel colors and the familiar sight.
Thanks Suren - I tried half a stop but found it too much (settled on a quarter ) surenj wrote:The rest is meh. I am not too excited about the inclusion of the stoney pavement which has icky texture and clashes.

- hard to find something to do with the edge wall other than completely exclude it and have nothing at the bottom or try and incorporate somehow. I was kinda happy with it in #3 (although I MUCH prefer Gerry's shot in this instance). With #4 how about a pano crop of the top half? biggerry wrote:Nice shots Rodney, i like the second one, buts no surprise - i think the slightly wider composition works well here but on the flip side the eye does not know whether to concentrate on the sky or the foreground, possibly cropping some sky would balance it out more.
Yeah... - I'm not sure - me personally I liked the action that was going on in the sky the best... zafra52 wrote:I like the 3rd one best. Lovely colours and well framed.
Thanks Zafra - but you've really got to check out Gerry's masterpiece in this instance D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)
