House

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.

Houses make for good photographic subjects, at least IMHO. The Australian landscape is filled with thousands of decrepit ones, just waiting to be captured.

I really like the first image here ozi. Reminds me a lot of the house I live in...crooked! The house has a certain sadness about it which has only been helped by your tasteful b&w treatment.

Second image seems to lack a bit of contrast but has a film look about it which can work, maybe some local highlight dodging and shadow burning could help this one...

I too like the first ozi but I reckon it might have been better without the fussiness of the fence in the way

#1 is a classic. Good to record these before they disappear forever.

Thanks Nathan. Yes, this house reminds me of the shack we lived in on the NSW Central Coast when I was a little kid. I drove past the place a few months ago and it has been renovated.

As for the fence, I could have hopped over to take the photo, but the place looked as though a big rottie was lurking somewhere, ready to pounce and destroy any hapless photographer (or mailman) that wandered into the yard... :lol:
