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.

a vote for the second one here also... the first seems a little too dark, but may work in b&w?

It was well worth the wait. That second image is very nice indeed.

These are both beautiful, however, I prefer the 2nd one also! The 1st is a bit too straight on, where as the 2nd with the boats at angle makes it more interesting. Lovely serene colours!

Now, which magazine would you suggest for tilting the monitor? :wink: :lol:

The 2nd one for me too, I think the lighting's just right. The 1st one seems a bit too 'ordered'.

Big pix - I've noticed you recently arrived on these forums and have had a big image posting frenzy. These would have to be among the best of them IMO. The colours in both are breathtaking. The second one is just... wow! :shock:

BigPix, I like the way you think. I used MacAddict magazine. Seems to give about the right slant on things. Before that the water was leaking out the side of my monitor so couldn't view the image for very long at a time. :wink:

thankyou ....... I only found this site a little while ago, and thanks to other members I now know how to post my pix's. I will be setting up a web site later in the year so keep an eye out for that one, there are lots more pix's to post but do want to fill up the forum to much.

cheers Big Pix

Edit: have a look at a post "I could do with one of these"
