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.

I decided take a punt and try shooting sunset on Sydney Harbour from somewhere I'd never been before. Out came TPE (The Photographers Ephemeris) for a bit of research and I searched for some suitable locations which would hopefully provide a good sunset location on the harbour and wasn't too far away to drive to. Eventually I found this little place called Berry Island Reserve - right next to Wollstonecraft on the lower North Shore of Sydney. It was originally one of Sydney's Harbour Islands, but it is now connected to the mainland by a constructed isthmus. I arrived at the point about 50 minutes before sunset to find these absolutely fantastic colourful striped sandstone rocks around the point and out into the water with a good selection of green mossy stuff as well - perfect for some foreground interest. Happy for some thoughts/suggestions on these? Gerry - these are all with that new Hitech Reverse Grad I ordered - I'm pretty happy with how it works so far Stacked a Lee 3 stop ND with the Hitech 3 stop Reverse Grad along with the CPL and set my ISO to 50 to get a longer exposure Otherworldy Light  This one perhaps 10 metres around the point with the fantastic lined rocks and ribbons of green in the cracks taken just one or two minutes after sunset Berry Lines  and just 5 minutes later we were treated to a brief show of vibrant red lines in the sky Curves in Red and Green  almost twenty minutes after sunset it was getting much darker so I could do some extremely long exposures - this one looking straight down one of the stripy cracks between the coloured sandstone towards what colour and light was left in the sky Cracks in Purple  D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

Very good Rodney. Now, if only you could get the ship to move...

You'd rather the shots without the ship? I'm sure it's not always there so perhaps next time I go there (assuming that happens)...  D600, D7000, Nikon/Sigma/Tamron Lenses, Nikon Flashes, Sirui/Manfrotto/Benro SticksRodney - My Photo BlogWant: Fast Wide (14|20|24)

Yep, I think the ship detracts form the colourful rocks. Might be worth a try next time. Either that, or phone the captain and ask him to move seeing he is double parked... President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)
